Let's vote on Rule 12

I commend you for starting this thread. It's a gutsy move, and I hope everyone will respond rationally. I do however disagree, and ironically some of my reasons for wanting to keep rule 12 are exactly the same as your reasons for wanting to get rid of it. Specifically point 2 above - it's because tools can excel in different areas that no one tool can be considered best. Besides that, rule 12 doesn't forbid discussion of the pros and cons of tools, it only forbids the inanely simplistic "what's best" posts.

Maybe the suggestion appended to the rule should be that if you are going to do a "What is best" thread, then it must be a Poll. I do not find it a problem to see what everyone else thinks is the best tool, but discussions about what defines "the best" is just too subjective. But I think Polls are okay.

Hi all. :) I don't think it really matters one way or another. Everybody knows DVD Shrink is best!!:goodpost:

:goodpost: :stupid: :stupid: :stupid:

We shouldn't just limit ourselves to just this forum as it is very broad on talking about all "One click DVD backup solutions". There are official forums out there for these programs too. ;) To cut down on "what best", I think someone should come up with a "One click DVD backup solutions" matrix like the done here in Doom9 and make it a sticky.

it's obvious to me but I'll keep it to myself but I will say that my 'best' is a hybrid of a few tools as I don't just use one specific one clicker as I require a little from a few apps ;) lol, so what's the best field to judge it on and the worst? is the order of the questions in order of importance so the best is at the top?
