Conclusion

The EZ-DUB by LITE-ON is a great addition to their great product line-up. The over-all burning ability of the drive is outstanding, and features clean, fast burns. The one-button duplication is a major relief to those who need to copy lots of discs, or to those who don't want to get bogged down in the quagmire of DVD ripping/burning software. This product can suit the needs of many different people with different burning needs, from the computer-phobic to the advanced burning guru. This drive aims to please and comes through easily.

Pros:

1. One Button copying and backup
2. Fast, clean burning
3. Wide support of media types
4. Stylish good looks
5. Portable
6. Easy to set-up, easy to use

1. Noisier than most drives when in full read mode
2. Short 3 foot USB Type A-B cable
3. No support for copying copy-protected movies (DVD collections need to be backed up too!)
4. No DVD-RW support

At the end of the day, I would not hesitate to buy this for myself or anyone else.
