I would never use mediaplayer to burn. It has permission managing and will stomp on you bitrate, etc. junkware. Just use nero - I think it is best. Or I've used adaptec ez cd creator. Any real burning softward will have a copy disk function. Basically, all it does is copy the contents of the first disk onto your harddrive, so you need room on harddrive for it - then it prompts you to put a fresh disk in and done. I usually just copy the disk over myself using windows explorer (no, not internet explorer) and just burn it straight from my HD and then delete source files after. The key is to be sure to defrag your drive first. Then make sure to trun off any other apps or services you don't need, and once burning, walk away. don't try using apps. while burning or you could get data drops and exceed buffer cache, etc.
