Hi guys and gals. I know I havent posted alot, but Ive been lurking here for a long time, and have always found the info extremely useful.
I was so excited tonight successfully burning both The Fog and Flightplan, that with my dvd tray open, I wound up kicking and snapping off the tray. This was an AOpen DUW1608.....sadly, it burned its last DVD.

So, with the advent of the newest tewchnology, any suggestions for in internal DVD Burner.....one that wont cost an arm and a leg and can cut thru allof the current codings?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

When evolution selects its agents, it does so at a cost, makes demands in exchange for singularity, and you may be asked to do something against your very nature. This force, evolution, is not sentimental. Like the Earth itself, it knows only the hard facts of life's struggle with death. All you can do is hope and trust that when you have served its needs faithfully, there may still remain some glimmer of the life you once knew.

All 3 are decently priced.....well within my range. My question, if you will......which is better? Better meaning, as far as anti-encryption and being able to play nice with all the DVD burning & ripping programs? Or doesnt that matter?

All three are good enough that the only differences you'll see in playback or compatibility depends on the software or media you use. I would buy the BenQ since it is the all around most praised burner on afterdawn.

Nooooo problem. I'm glad I could help, and remember to come back if you want help with anything else.

I would snaggle up a Plextor drive... Plextor DVD Burners have a large buffer...... I have made hundreds of burns with nary a single coaster created...(Always use brand media suggested by you DVD maker for greatest reliability)....... Best regards... GarAftab....
