Solid Unit, Works As Designed

by apowell , Feb 12, 2007
Pros: Compact, efficient, does what it should, doubles as computer DVD drive!
Cons: No monitor circuit; agressive with VHS tape copy protection.

This reviewer recommends this product.

Author's Rating: 4/5 stars  

Your typical Sony "over-promise and under-deliver" product

by veryatlantic , Sep 20, 2007
Pros: A perfect substitute for an ordinary DVD burner you could buy for half the price.
Cons: A waste of time and money, shame on Sony!
The Bottom Line: It would be unfair to say "Boycott Sony", so I won't.
This reviewer does not recommend this product.
