Re: Key Post: Current best value DVD recorder
It depends on what you want.
A hard drive is really important as you don't have to keep chopping and changing disks.
RTE will be moving to digital broadcasting over the next few years, so it should have the capacity to record digitally broadcast programmes.
I found Video Plus to be very useful, but it has been replaced by something else, which does not seem to work too well in Ireland.
I did a bit of research and concluded that the best machine was the Sony 870 or Sony 890. I bought the Sony 870 for around €370 during the week. I haven't set it up yet though.
But for €100 how far wrong can you go?
Then there is all this talk about BlueRay which I don't fully understand. I gather it is something to do with the way in which movies are recorded onto DVDs, but as I don't watch pre-recorded movies, it doesn't affect me.
