I have full rights to them but I can't do anything with them. The discs he sent are DVD-R. I only have a CD drive. So, can someone with DVD drive burn new CDs discs? There are currently 5 DVD-R discs. I'm assuming I'd have a lot of CD discs.... Help!

DVD drives are relatively inexpensive now and usually read both DVDs and CDs...what about buying one and installing it in your PC? Upgrades for your PC are often very helpful. ______________________ "Live Free Or Die Death Is Not The Worst of Evils." - General John Stark, a distinguished hero of the Revolutionary War

If a person has a drive that can burn CDs and READ DVDs then yes, you can copy all that data to your hard drive and separate it out onto DVDS but you will be spending HOURS doing that. That said, What websailor said is true, you can get a DVD burner at like Best Buy relatively cheaply.
