    I have both WinDVD and PC Friendly on my newly purchased notebook. Im currently in the process of deleting unnecessary programs and wondering which one I should keep. Simply put, which one is better? Thank you!!!

    Have you tried to use both of them? Sometimes some DVD viewing programs work better, and some are easier to use. I have interactive, and vaio zone. Win DVD DID NOT work well when I tried to view DVDs on my notebook.
