Grateful Dead/Garcia complete recordings - rapidshare

Anyone know how hard (or easy) it is to take the multi-part movies and put them together and burn a DVD. I have a DVD burner, but honestly, I don't think I"ve ever used it.

if its easy I may register with Rapid Share and get serious!

It's totally easy. You simply pull each of the parts (super fast depending on your connection ). Then, using WINRAR (free app) you uncompress them in a single step. When it does that, it joins them together and you end up with your file(s) ready to listen/watch/burn.

I tried out RapidShare for a month ($9 or something). It's a breeze. So worth it. I joined for another 3 months ($24). I'm totally getting my money's worth. You can also utilize your account from ANY computer, not just your home one. I download at work quite often ;)

i joined up with rapidshare to take advantage of all the dick's picks on here. the thing i hate, and kev, if you have a way around this please do tell, but when using the rapidshare download manager the DLs are suuuuuper slow. Like 4 KB/s. Whereas just manually clicking each file I can pull over 100 KB/s. The only reason I use the download manager is because my connection drops a lot and the download manager will resume where it left off, unlike straight downloading in firefox.

So my question is, should i use a different download manager? or is there a preferred server i should use in the settings area rather than just whatever server it picks for me?

any tips? i really don't like copying and pasting the links into the download manager either. i could be doing this all wrong. any help would be awesome.

soooo much good music on this site. and so many good movies.

all you phish people, the complete discography is on here as well as all the Live Phish releases.

so for instance, say i want to download dick's picks 29 ( and boy do i ever ). i click on each rapidshare link, it goes to the stupid advertisement page, i click through to get to the actual rapidshare page.

i copy the url into notepad, and repeat for each part of the rar file (parts 1-7, in this case).

http://rapidshare.com/files/82889958/DP29.part2.rar

http://rapidshare.com/files/82889902/DP29.part1.rar

then, i open the rapidshare download manager, click add from the download tab, then enter the text file above into the window, and hit the 'take links' button. then, it starts crawling along downloading uber-slowly. i eventually get all the files, and it's fine for loading up a bunch when i go to sleep. but is there a better way?

anyone know a better way?

Nice. Jerry Shoreline is just about done and I'll give it a shot. If I manage to burn it I'll sign up. its not super fast for me as a "free", I only get about 100kb/s.
