| 23975 | 2001-11-08 12:51:00 | Simple answer: No. Basically because of how information is stored on a DVD, a DVD player or drive is different to a CD player or drive in how it can read the information. Information on DVDs is stored a lot closer together, enabling it to hold a LOT more, so the DVD Drive has to be able to read this. |
