Digital camera reviews of Sony DRU-500AX Internal DVD±RW Drive

Digital camera Review: A Great Piece of Hardware but The Software is For The Birds!
Summary: 4 Stars

As to the software package: don't bother! I found most of the applications completely worthless, buggy, and just plain cheap. While I don't expect a lot in bundled software, I do expect more than what came with this drive. Really, don't even install these applications.

For burning DVDs, you could do a lot worse than Roxios latest Easy CD/DVD software. It is worth making the investment in a stand-alone software package and the Roxio product does a decent job without breaking the bank. DVD X-Copy is also super! I would be very careful with what other packages you purchase unless you are willing to spend a lot more than $... The quality of what is out there varies greatly.
