    • Many users with older PCs still utilize their disc drives for media playback. However, DVDs aren’t especially durable as they can get scratched quite easily.

    As disc scratching can ruin DVDs, it might be a good idea to back up some of your discs by cloning them.

    The process of cloning, or copying, a DVD includes both disc ripping and burning. First, a DVD’s content needs to be ripped (copied) to a PC.

    Copying ripped content from PC to a blank DVD is disc burning. Ripping and burning one disc’s content to another will clone it.
