Lite-On AllWrite LVW-5005 DVD/CD Recorder
2nd time after 6 mos crashes no more recorder
I hate to say it as my dad really liked what he read on the lite on but this is the second one ive had and it starts write failing abtou 4-6 mos into it. Im not a hardcore user very few times do I use it and never has failed it gets to the 6 month period and starts flaking out. this one is out of warranty but its my 2nd one in one year time. I would say go sony or a brand that will be there and will put in quality parts thos lasers go out and there is not repalcing them... good luck on your search... its also really finicky on the dvds as well and you end up losing cash there when they wont recognize it... Now either its because I keep getting bad lite ons or they are really strict on what they will take but technology should be good enough now where you dont have to do back bends just to get it to work!
