I do not understand how you paid for dvdshrink-I thought that was a free program. Some people use dvd decripter and shrink. I use anydvd and clonedvd2 from slysoft.com and they work well. Anydvd takes out the copy protection and clonedvd copies the dvd. If your only using doublelayer dvds then you only need anydvd and another program to copy the dvd. Your version of Nero may have to be updated to Nero 7. I do not use doublelayer disks because of the cost. I think you should download a 21 day trial of anydvd and clonedvd2 and you can try them for 21days. Good luck.
