whats a good DVD Recording company?

[lozina]

I've always been a loyal Plextor customer- every CD and CD recording device I buy or recommend is a Plextor... I've never had problems and never produced a single 'coaster'. Unfortunately though, Cds are ancient technology nowadays, and I am looking to move on into dvd recording. I am totally unfamiliar with the companies offering DVD recorders- pioneer, toshiba, sony... How good quality are these dvd devices and which would you recommnd most to me?

CD's are not ancient technology, and for DVD's well we still have a standards war going on. But your best bet is the pioneer DVR-A03. It will run you about 380US. thats considered the best, of course you can find cheaper solutions .. good luck ..

standards war?

i have not heard of this...

does this mean burning a dvd on certain drives render it unreadable to other brands???

and what about regular dvd players for home entertainment systems- will they be able to read off of dvds burned on these drives?
