Just bought a Pioneer 104 DVD-RW and it is brill, if you are used to lightning fast CD burns it can be a bit of a drag as it takes around 50 mins to burn the full 4.7gig DVD but if you buy certified 2x media (The media controls the speed you can't over-ride it) it will half the time.

He bought it at our local mall so the whole fiasco wound up on the news, it was embarrassing for my relatives and all, but the next week he did it again, different cat, same results, complete with another trip to the emergency room! So I run into him a week later in the mall and he’s buying another cat and I says to ‘em "Jesus Walt, what are you doing? You know your just gonna get this cat stuck up your ass too, why don’t you knock it off?" And he says to me "Brodie, how the hell else am I supposed to get the gerbil out?" My cousin was a weird guy....

the 104 is good at cdr i suppose, its 8x and has buffer underrun protection. So ive not had any problems with it, apart from it being a bit slow when backing up large images. But works a treat for ps2 games and the like so im chuffed with the drive overall.

If you want a DVD-R burner, it HAS to be Pioneer because they own the system.

However, I did read a report that sometime in the autumn Pioneer were going to sell the rights to other manufacturers, e.g. Samsung, who would be bringing out cheaper drives, maybe even 4X. No sign of this happening yet though - anyone know what's going on?
