In Synaptic, go to Settings/Repositories, and untick (uncheck) the
CD/DVD entries, click Done.  You'll probably probably be asked to
Reload you database(s).  Do so.

Doing the above will negate the need to update the sources using a text
editor, either as root or by use of sudo, as to run Synaptic one
(obviously) requires elevated privileges.

Now you should now be able to install/update software without an annoying
"Insert DVD...." nag requester.
