ALL HAIL BLUE-RAY...jokin
u can get a dvd-rw for under 3k...but a good one is 3.5k.
cd-rw is outdated, wouldn't make sense getting it anymore..
and yeah: never buy a samsung...it drops dead within months..
sony or lite-on are the best..
try the DRU-810A...but if ur budget doesnt permit this..well get a CD-RW from lite-on
