Title: Definitely not worth the money
Review: I would not recommend this product. Neither of the two features I need most from this Sony -- DVD player and DVD recorder -- work.The DVD player freezes all the time and there's no way to get past that point (FF, REW, etc. nothing works). Plus, with some DVDs all of a sudden there will be this extremely loud squeal or static sound and, well, that's the end of being able to watch that DVD. I've cleaned the DVD player several times but that hasn't helped.We have been able to copy one VHS tape. Other than that we've made a lot of coasters. The instructions are terrible, but even when you finally make some sense of them the end result is more DVDs that won't play. I've tried three DVD formats (+R, -R, R/W) and have wasted many hours trying to get this thing to work.So I gave up on trying to record but the aforementioned DVD player problems keep me from using it at all. At the end of the day all I've managed to do is buy a $200 VCR.
Is the review positive or negative?
