What is the best way to get WinDVD or PowerDVD in bulk?

Here is my conundrum..

I'm looking to start a business selling computers and want to include only one optical drive to make everything less confusing.

OEM DVD-RW Drives almost always come with a good deal on Nero (~Around $5)

OEM DVD Drives almost always come with WinDVD or PowerDVD for free (Samsung, for exmaple)

What I want to do is only sell DVD-RW drives (hell they only cost $40!) with my computers, but have both Win or Power DVD software included along with Nero.

Does anyone know what the most cost effective way to do this? So far it would be cheaper for me to buy Samsung DVD Drives for $20, throw away the drive and keep the WinDVD software.. which seems a little absurd. There must be a better way to get this software at a good price!
 
Lite-on has been offering quality drives for several years. In fact various vendors rebadge their drives. 🙂

Their DVD Burners blow 😉

Check out cd-freaks.com if you don't believe me. NEC and BenQ make much much better drives.
