Swap Magic - Play Playstation 2 Import And Backup Games - Without a Mod Chip! I have to admit. I had no idea what swapping discs meant, and certainly no idea what the heck a Swap Magic meant. I have been a proud owner of a Playstation 2 for quite some time now. I bought it the day it was release (yes, I stood in line - like everyone else) and haven't looked back since. I love Playstation 2 games. Even with my Xbox 360 sitting proudly on my entertainment unit shelf, I still get excited about ...

Recently, Musiq Soulchild released his first ever christmas album, 'A Philly Soul Christmas'.  Now, as much as I normally prefer to leave reviews to 'critics' (ie people who really don't know much at all about music to begin with), the reviews this disc has received since it's release compelled me to write a few words.  It would appear that the vast majority of 'critics' who decided to review this disc so far are strict traditionalists...and, admittedly, if you're a traditionalist where ...

In the late 1940's, the 45-RPM record replaced the 78-RPM record. The 45 was smaller, less breakable and could be made and sold more cheaply. Despite these advantages, it took ten years before the 78 became obsolete, and in the meantime, record companies sold their product in both formats. In 1982, the major record companies introduced the compact disc, which offered a smaller size, 'perfect' sound, and less likelihood of damage in day to day use. As the compact disc offered a much larger ...

When it comes to video playback, my laptop takes a lot more of the beating nowadays than the DVD player. Long waits at the airport and land travels that take hours find me watching movies on disc or downloaded.

Many users, myself included, have come to appreciate the obvious features of the VLC Media Player Download. It plays a multitude of formats, allowing ...

The portable CD player ain't what it used to be. New formats enable a single disc to hold up to 675 songs. That's up to 45 hours of music on a CD mp3 player that fits in your pocket or purse. Personal CD players can play pre-recorded CD's and HD (high-density) CD-R/RW discs burned in formats like mp3 and WMA. They'll hold 30+ hours of music. MiniDisc players using the ATRAC3Plus technology are smaller, with even larger capacities. Sony developed a three inch CD in the early 1990's that can ...

In 1982, Sony and Philips introduced the compact disc, a digital music playback format that used a laser to read the disc. The compact disc was expected to quickly replace the long play record album (LP) that Columbia had introduced in 1949. The product took off quickly, even at a retail price that was nearly double that of a record album, and sales of record albums plummeted. The CD, as compact discs quickly became known, offered what audio magazines called 'perfect sound forever' while ...

Whoa! Your boss tells you he needs a hundred copies of his presentation on CD--by tomorrow morning. Since he wants to impress the clients he also wants professional-looking labels on the CDs as well. A simple marker won't cut it this time. Maybe it's time for a desktop duplicator or to hire a duplicating service. Since most household computers are now equipped with a drive that has the capacity to burn discs, it is no surprise that disc duplication has become big business. But sorting through ...
