So for as much as i despised Easy CD Creator, it did span a large fileset over multiple DVDs. I have not found a program since that has been capable of doing that. Does anyone know of a program that will span a large folder of data (16-20GB) over multiple DVDs either using industry standard compression (*.zip, etc), or just by writing the files directly to the disc?

DVD Span did the job for me.

DVD Span is a backup tool for writing the contents of large folders to multiple DVDs. DVD Span can automatically determine the best organization of each disk in order to fit the maximum amount of data on the minimum number of disks. DVDSpan is a great tool for backing up your music collection, photos, or even your entire hard disk to DVDs. And because it produces regular DVDs (or CDs), no special software is required to read or restore your backups.

      Wikipedia has become hot molasses with mostly filth masquerading as truth. Most of it is the imagination of few writers who think of themselves as above god. The narrative setup is mind boggling.

      No. 1/10th the cost of a Mac? The Mini starts at 599. What mini-pc costs 1/10th of that? The OS is nothing like macOS. Sure you can make it look like it, but it won’t work anything like it. Applications won’t install, or remove the same. Application compatibility will be different. Managing the OS is completely dissimilar, the biggest common ground will be a few CLI utilities. You can definitely get yourself an inexpensive little setup that has a good Linux distro and be happy. It won’t be 1/10th the cost or essentially a Mac though.

      I must be doing something right because I feel like I don’t really come across that many cheaters. I’m not saying you don’t, I just must be really lucky.
