This product has great features

I purchased this because I wanted to watch movies on my desktop. I was very impressed with the quality of picture and sound from a small and compact player. This does a lot more than just playback movies. It can burn discs as like the internal bay drives in your computer. In my computer I cannot play Blu-ray DVD movies because, It only has a analog flat screen 22 inch wide screen pc monitor. But you can purchase an HDMI connecter that will plug in to a USB port that would allow you to connect it to your HDMI TV.
Pros: Performance, Style/Design, easy to use, Features/Settings, Quality, great product
I would recommend this to a friend!

I bought this for the lightsribe feature and the Blue Ray player was a bonus. I have had zero issues with the install
or functions of this drive. This is the 5th LG drive I have purchased and have never had an issue with any of them.

Solid blu ray player - Great bang for the buck

I got this baby as a Christmas present to myself. I wanted to watch blu rays on my computer but did not have a player. This player is a great value. It was easy to install and set up with the provided software. Plays most of my blu rays, but would not play The Hobbit. Not sure why. Also plays regular dvds well. I used it to burn a few cds and it did a great job. All in all, a great product for a modest price.
Pros: Performance, Style/Design, easy to use, value

Evoid this product if you have Windows 8.1

This driver is very noisy while playing/burning CD or DVD. With Blu Ray the sound is correct. It's provide with Power DVD 9. This program is not compatible with Windows 8.1. If you buy this product, your will have to buy PowerDVD 14 Ultra. Also, the firmware of this driver need update to work correctly on Windows 8.1.
Best thing to do, buy a newer model of LG driver!
Pros: Performance, Style/Design, easy to use
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
