Sony RDR-VX500 DVD Player/Recorder with VCR
No Upgrade to use 16x DVD-R/+R media!
Save your money! <br />This thing only writes to 8X speed disks AND SLOWER! <br />Not faster! <br />I have 400+ DVD-R disks in my house now that this thing will not see. <br />Sure - in the manual on page 10 it says blah-blah speed or slower, but please! no accounting for faster media tecnology? <br />Come on! <br />I have had this thing for about 18 months (obsolete?) and 8x disks are VERY HARD to find. They are all 16x now. <br />Sony, what were you thinking!?! ~$400 paid! BOHICA. <br /> <br />Buy a Panasonic.
