Pros: easy to use, good recordings
Cons: you cannot pause during recording!!
Summary: I keep reading all these glowing reviews for this DVD Recorder, but there is a vital feature that is totally lacking & I'm in shock on one seems to have noticed it. One of the most basic ******** of any recorder, be it DVD or VCR, is to be able... read more >>

"It's a Dubber--not a Recorder"
Pros: records well
Cons: Cannot be paused while in "record" mode
Summary: The most crucial and elementary of all editing features is unavailable: you cannot pause while recording. All you get is an error message on-screen that says "this feature is prohibited in record mode." How a corporation with the reputation of Son... read more >>
