Hello everyone. My first post here. Great forum. I am deciding to buy a DVD burner drive and price and quality is very important. I have narrowed down to 3 choices. 1) I/O Magic Dual Format 4x2.4x12x DVD+RW, 4x2x12x DVD-RW, 24x10x40x CD-RW (Priced at $99.99) 2) Iomega Super DVD Writer Dual Format 4x2.4x12x DVD+RW 2, 4x2x12x DVD-RW, 3x DVD-RAM, 24x16x32x CD-RW (Priced at $129.00) and 3) Pioneer DVR-A06 Dual Format 4x2.4x12x DVD+RW, 4x2x12x DVD-RW, 16x10x32x CD-RW with DVD PictureShow 2 Software ($139.00). The I/O Magic is the cheapest at $99 dollars. Is it a good drive? I guess I want the drive that will give me the least amount of problems. I am running WindowsXP and want a drive that is compatible with most media and doesnt have issues with burning. Any of your suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Re the I/O Magic Drive. I have one. Interesting product. Picky on media. I paid $99 Canadian for it at Best Buy at least $100 cheaper than the nearest "name" brand drive. With the right media it does an awesome job. The HD-Burn is a bonus. The ability to burn 1.4G on a 700mb CD. Currently can only play it back on this drive. But a great feature.
PS I paid $2 Canadian for Memorex 4X +R discsnot much more than - R discs They work excellent in this machine.
