Title: An Expensive Paper Weight
Product review: Don't buy SONY! After owning this product for little over a year, it fails to read any disk. All disks, commercial, -r, -rw,+rw, even disks it has created on it's own, generate the "disk error" message. Brand new disks (straight from the packaging) even generate this message now. Sony was uninterested in assisting me, simply telling me to send the unit in, at my cost and they would let me know what it will cost for repairs. Best case scenario was over $120.00 plus shipping. Costs could be $300.00 or more. Or course then they could keep the paperweight and I could tell them not to repair it. Don't take my word for it, before you buy Sony, google "Sony disk error" and see how many hits you get. The most knowledgeable claim the problem is a faulty laser assembly, which Sony is aware of but refuses to make right. I realize things do not last forever, but modern electronic equipment should function longer than 18months. I don't see myself ever purchasing another Sony product.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
