Product review: I have had this recorder since 1/19/04. so far i have transferred 20 vhs tapes to dvd-r, the picture is great. I bought sony for 2 reason: 1st--i don't think the dvd-ram will sell well for long--most dvd players want play them. 2nd: sony RDR-GX7 recorder records dvd-r, dvd+rw and dvd-rw. -r and +rw can be played back on most dvd players. i do not like sony vcr's, but their cd and dvd players have proven to be very reliable. i own the cdp-991 cd player which is about 8 years old and a dvd player [dvp-s360] which is about 3 years old. my point is this, i would think that the dvd player and the cd player would have some of the same parts as the dvd recorder making this recorder very reliable. Only time will tell for sure. This recoder does a good job of recording off of the tv, the picture is the same as the original. but in ths case i have to recommend TIVO for tv recording, it will do alot more for the money. hope my review was helpful
