Just my two cents worth. I like the box set since its ready available if I need it. Also I have been unable to get K3B to burn a dvd reliably. I have the latest version and it will not burn the dvd, so what good is a downloaded ISO.
I've tried many dvd brands, no help. My drive is new. K3b will format the drive but dies when I try to burn a 4.7 dvd. Is there any other dvd burners? I was going to try Nero but they do not have a demo of there new version yet.
I'm on 10.0 and have not gone to 10.1 because of the fact a boxed set would have to have downloads done to get things to work (updates).
Thanks for lrtting me vent.
Hopefully 10.2 will be cleaner. -- Russ
Whenever I hear of DVD/CD burn problems that seem to revolve around the drive itself I always recommend that you find the latest firmware for that device. A good starting point is www.cdfreaks.com. They have links to the manufacturer's firmware as well as 3rd party firmware that may work even better. Solved several CD/DVD drive problems for me in both reading and writing as well as booting from the device, etc. Doesn't matter how new/old the device is if there is better firmware out there that lets it work better.
