Review title: Definitely a social commentary Product review: An interesting book and thoughtfully written. I was between three and four stars. The concept of a group of people being kept down purely to ease the life of others is not new or easy to accept but is a truth throughout human history. The fact that this is hard for intelligent people to accept and live with when their culture does not accept it pushed me to the four stars. I like to think about what the story is really saying and what is acceptable, or not, to me so I enjoyed the book overall although there were times when the reading dragged a little.

Review title: Problems copying VHS tapes to DVD Product review: I'm not crazy about this unit. I bought it to replace a Philips player, which I loved until it died at the age of 5 months. As others have mentioned, the Sony feels sluggish when loading discs and responding to the remote. It also makes a lot more noise than the Philips player. Connecting a VCR to the composite video inputs on the DVD recorder for copying VHS tapes to DVD is unreliable. For some tapes it works fine. For others the resulting picture on the DVD jumps 1 to 2 times per second. Totally useless. This is not a copy-protect problem - these are homemade tapes. The problem does not occur if the VCR is connected to the DVD recorder with an RF connection instead of the composite video connection. I spent about 45 minutes on the phone with a Sony tech support person who was basically clueless and who provided no help at all.

Review title: not what i expected Product review: Judging by the commercial I thought this DVD would be fun Zumba-like dancing. Instead, I felt like I was being taught chroeography for a Brittany Spears video. I'm not a professional dancer auditioning for a part, so "snaking my body" and "whipping my hair around" isn't want I'm looking for in a dance excercise video. Extremely disappointed.
