Am looking at getting a dvd burner and have noticed that scan have some of the sony units in there 'today only' section for this weekend, but am unsure which are good burners and which aren't....
i had previously been told the sony's were very good and could do everything i would want, but theres a few versions so not sure which one was meant.

Ive got the Pioneer A-04 its DVD-R and its not a bad drive, one of the better ones allegedly 
Maybe a dual format DVD-R DVD+R might be a better option, ive had mine now for over a year, and afaik DVD-R is still widely available

lets just say i want to play safe, and have you ever heard the word 'betamax' ?
Different situation.As long as i can get -r dvdr's then i can copy films to watch in my dvd player.So what if another format comes along.
Also in the long term well all be upgrading to faster and cheaper writers anyway.

I have a sony DRU-500AX (Same as "A" but retail boxed) got it a few months back from Japan for £200 
Marvelous drive, would recommend to anyone, last time I checked though they where hard to get hold of, and pricey in the UK.
