    DVD copy "on the fly" requires 2 DVD drives, one to copy from and one to copy to.

    As for your networking, you say you have wired at the moment - do you have a router/switch/hub and do you have spare ports? If you have a router then you could just add a wireless access point to it and then wireless cards for each of your PC/laptops as needed.

    If you're using a hub now then you'll need to replace it. You'll need to get a wireless router, either with or without a modem depending on the type you have now (if it's a usb modem it wont work with the router). Then you get a wireless adapter for each pc/laptop.

    Anything else ?

    Hi,

    You can't copy on the fly using DVD-Shrink as it hast to shrink the dvd, re-encode it as multi region and make it to an ISO/Folder.
    What you can do is make it to an ISO file (prefered as everything is in 1 file), open the iso file in burning program, say nero. Then burn a copy.
    Now using this copy it is possible to do a 1-to-1 copy as it has been shrunk and re-encoded!
