With the Richie drama of the past week, I forget to post my thanks for the replies to my question. Bonjovi90's technique sounds way too technical for me. My best best is probably to get either a vcr/dvd recorder combo, or perhaps look into rocknation's suggestion. I don't intend to transfer everything, but I do have a few concerts in particular I'd like to preserve.

Anyone know if the official releases (i.e. Access All Areas) are copyable?
