Hi all

There's a nice round up of the best DVD burners in the market here:

Question is: Which DVD burner should I get? I'm thinking of either the Sony DRU-500A or Pioneer DVR-A04.
Anyone owns these drives? Any inputs or comments? Thanks.

Regards
Daniel

I don't have any of those drives, but the Sony DRU-500A is a clear winner here as it supports both DVD-R/W and DVD+R/W format while the Pioneer only supports DVD-R/W.

Go for Sony DRU-500A if you can afford it.
