how to mess up a dvd?

[dispozable]

so is there a way to permanently mess up a pre-made dvd?
i would like to be able to mess up a dvd through software, that way there would be no proof of tampering. (i want a few new movies on blueray )
i would like it to run in ubuntu, but a windows program is fine.
these are factory dvds btw, not dvdrw.

Why? What you are trying to do is malicious damage to property - illegal in most places.

i want to mess my dvds up so i can get some new blueray ones
selfish i know but it looks so much better lol. my girlfriend wont let me replace them unless they are bad

you can't mess them up through software, they are read only

unless you could convinced your burner to try to write some stuff to them anyway

just buy the bluray and sell the old dvds

A bit of steel wool goes a long way...

So you want to destroy them, to get new ones and there isn't anything wrong with them in the first place besides a few scratches? It must be nice to afford wasting money. But anyhow,
1) you could just leave them all in a car under a blazing hot sun.
2) Conveniently "forget" to pick them up out of the street, before you run them over at 90 MPH with a car.

Many of the older movies that are now coming out on Blu-ray don't look much if any better than they did on the DVD format to me, so it might be worth hanging on to those disks and spending your money on just those Blue-ray movies that were made with Blu-ray in mind when they were being filmed. Just an opinion, of course.

I actually like the disc in the microwave technique.

Makes for a good light show!

Though it would be pretty obvious that something happened to it...

I have to agree with ozar here. Most of the titles I've bought on Blu-Ray that came out prior to 2000 aren't really going to impress you on Blu-Ray. Hang on to your DVDs and save your money for something that will actually make an impact, like the Lord of the Rings or the Iron Man movies.

I picked up the original Star Trek movies on Blu-Ray and wasn't all that impressed. The new Star Trek movie however looked fantastic.

Long story short, don't destroy your DVDs. It sounds like you might have some relationship issues to work out too, but that's none of my business.
