1. I bought an external hard drive 1st to store fights cause TRUST me you can't convert & burn as fast as you can download. Links/Files/fights WILL expire and again their isn't enough hours to download & convert & burn everything you want at once. The external hard drive will help you store the fights you want to see while you convert & burn other fights you had 1st.

2. Instal ConvertXtoDVD, simple and works well. Yes it takes a while to convert but trust me it's all trial and error and you can add your own menu, title, background picture and all if you want to make your DVD's a little cooler . I usually convert over night or when I'm out, I'll set it up and leave somewhere and when I come back my fights converted and ready to be burned.

3. Yes it takes time, yes theres some work that's gotta be put in but trust me watching Salvador Sanchez vs. Wilfredo Gomez on my big screen is one of the most joyus things I can do. Being able to take 2 or 3 fights with me and play them on my Sony Walkman DVD player is one of the most satisfying things I can do during my lunch every day of the week.

So listen Hulk at 1st a lot if not all will not make sense and your gonna make mistakes and it's gonna get to you and your gonna have some problems figuring things out but again the pay off once you figure out what your doing and you learn things as you go along is great. Please believe me you won't regret it.
CC and Thanks. Basically its like this:
My Dad paid for this high speed satellite internet cus thats all we can get here out in the cuts. AND he did it becus he thought that with it be could finally d/l fights and he is not satisfied with just watching em on our 19 inch monitor. He wants em burned onto a DVD to be watched on the big screen. Also he does not think it should be hard at all, should be just as simple as music, and what not, and wants me to call the HP computer people, since our computer is an HP and ask those fukers how to do it. Honestly i do not think they are going to be much help...but who knows. Trying to explain to him that it is MUCH MUCH easier to just watch the fights on youtube for right now till I figure out how to do this crazy shat has not gone over well. He thinks that there is some simple solution to d/ling and watching FREE fights and movies off the net with hi-speed internet. Maybe he's right I dunno, but damnit I trust my fellow boxing nerds and my fellow boxing nerds are tellin me something entirely differnt. Thanks to all who have responded. I'll get round to CCn' you all trust me.
