Lite-On LVW5001 DVD Plus Player/Recorder
Easier than a lot of VCR's and BETTER!
I bought it for a number of reasons. Storage of information from my computer. But it works great recording TV shows that you can watch later on a portable DVD player, great for passengers that hate driving. I made discs of my digital photos on CD, but when played on a DVD they just looked OK. Now I can make DVD and the digital pictures look stellar on a regular TV. One final note, after recording shows from my cable, I played them back and they look better than the direct cable connection.  In fact, the 6 Hr DVD records look cleaner than the 2hr VCR recordings. The 2 hour DVD TV recordings look as good as DVD&#146;s from Blockbuster.
