LG are another of my great cheap and cheerful companies along with (JVC.) If you have a computer with alot of data then the DVD Re-writer allowes you to back up and save those precious documents and those famous holiday snaps then you can put them all on to a computer and make a DVD of your holiday snaps.....but if you are really clever then you can record those magic moments on the holidays and put them all onto one DVD (now thats amazing.)
