But do I want DVD writing ability?

Personally, iw ould go for the burner if the cash was at hand! I just recently bought my first DVD drive... a 16x Artec (or some odd name) for $30ish... Now I see that deal I posted for the Lite-On burner under $100 with no rebates and I'm a little disappointed.

Two Cents

Get the burner. I've made several "Backup" copies of movies I own and the kids "store" them in their bedrooms. I even have a couple "stored" movies running across America with a trucker friend of mine.

But don't wast your money on "bargain" media! Try a couple brands for compatability with your players before you buy any bulk supply.

I'd go with the burner as well. Sure wish the cost of the media would come down tho.

Spend the cash and get some DVD writing action going on!

Speaking of expensive media, why can't the stupid stores stock something besides 4X CD-RWs? I know it's because there isn't a demand, but who wants to make a CD-RW at 4X??????

If the 24X CD-RWs were like $3 I'd get them, but I'd rather pay $2.94 for a fifty pack of TDK 48X CD-Rs (that I make at 52X). I mean, you can reuse them until they're full, so it works for me.

Okay, well I guess I know what my next upgrade will be. Laughing
