Solid Unit, Works As Designed

Date of Review:  Feb 12, 2007
The Bottom Line: If you need what this machine does, it's a good value and will work well. Do your homework and understand what it does and does not do.
Review: I recently bought a VRD-VC20 slightly used on Ebay. It came with original packaging, software and cable, and the manual is available through Sony online. This is now an outdated unit in Sony s line, but it can be a good value if it suits your needs...

Poorly Conceived and Unsupported Product

Date of Review:  Feb 14, 2006
The Bottom Line: I would not buy this product unless you are a fan of frustration. The hardware is poor, the software is terrible, and the support is non-existent.
Review: This product was obviouly released long before they had the bugs worked out. The product can create a viewable DVD about half the time. The other half of the time the recording just stops for no apparent reason, the DVD produced just hangs, or the...
