    No...You can Not Burn a DVD with a CD-Burner...

    You can rip a DVD and Convert it to VCD or SVCD Format but VCD/SVCD"s Suck Big time and Have Really Bad Problems getting them to Play on some Players Pluss you have to Put the Movies on at Least 2 CD-R"s for one Movie.....

    I would suggest that your Friend just Invest the $40 and get a DVD Burner or you can even get a Used one for about $20 or Less....

    There are Guides in the "Guides" section that will explain how to convert DVD to VCD/SVCD but it is Done with a Bunch of Different Programs so it can not be Done with Just One program....

    Cheers
