This one is a matter of procedure.
First I copy all the data I want on the dvd into a workspace, and verify
filesize and file count
Then I have a valid complete 'original' to compare the burned disc to.
Then burn this workspace onto the dvd, verify, and delete workspace.
This also make the copy go more smoothly when some or all of the data comes
acoss my LAN - I don't want network issues messing up a burn.
