Got this model and it works pretty well in terms of playing DVD's an recording them, but I think the main problem here is the fact that it seems like any type of removable storage to burn doesn't seem to work the greatest. I've tried using flash drives many times on this machine but for some reason it never seems to work. Maybe it's me with the types of files that I put on there, but still, you would think that any type of media would be playable no matter what type of file it is.

Either way though, I think that this is a great device for anyone's home mainly because burning DVD's is much better than relying on old VCR's, but at the same time, this device does have its frustration and might take a bit of trial and error, especially when it comes to removable storage like flash drives and stuff like that.
