Hello all - I have a dozen or so movies (.avi and .mpg) I want to back up onto CD to free up space on my hd. Like a mad, mad fool I didn't opt for a Superdrive when I bought my machine (OsX 10.3.9, 12" iBook, 60GB hd) and now it's not a financial option. Curses.
The files are about the 690 - 700MB mark and won't fit on the CD-Rs I have. I have tried archiving them and creating a compressed dmg but no joy. Any clues as to how to squeeze them onto a CD? I'd like to go for a hardware remedy but I live in a pretty poor country and all those options are way out of my league at the moment, as are expensive software solutions, more's the pity.
This would also help me with backing up my many vast photos I can't bring myself to shrink or discard.
Thanks in advance.
