Philips DVDR80 Progressive Scan DVD Player / Recorder
Avoid Philips products at all cost
This Philips DVD recorder is just like its predecessors: a waste of time and money.  It starts out great, but then over time problems crop up -- too many to cover here.  DVD+RW is the way to go, so I am going to check out Sony's DVD recorder which can record in both DVD-RW and DVD+RW.  However, I will probably wait until Sony's DVD recorder can edit in DVD+RW format.  I will never buy another Philips product again.  Their engineers are incompetent, and their tech support staff in Jamaica is a joke.  Philips is going to take a big financial hit from all of the angry people who bought their crappy DVD recorders and will never buy anything from Philips again.  I'm glad I don't own any shares of Philips stock.
