No front display, and that’s a deal-killer

After all the great reviews, I was all set to really love this unit. But when I got it, I discovered there is no illuminated front display. Turns out, this is important! This means you don’t know what movie chapter you are on or how many minutes in, unless you bring it up on the tv screen itself. This is even more impractical if you are using the unit as a CD player, and you need to know what track you’re on. The only way to know is to turn on the tv! This is maddening. Never seen anything like it. It’s like a car without a speedometer or a gas gauge. Buyers beware. I’m returning this for something more user friendly.

Verbatim never lets me down. I've used their blank discs for years, and never encountered a single flaw. I wouldn't dream of looking at another brand.

It's not the name brand, but that doesn't matter. It's a good bit cheaper and it works perfectly. Buy with confidence.

Very easy to just plug it in and start using it. I got this great big monitor for my elderly mother's computer: now everything is larger and she can read emails and Facebook postings unassisted (and I guess that's a good thing??). With all the positive reviews, the low price was irresistible. This monitor is a great value. I will probably get one myself when my current monitor burns out!

A wonderful experience in so many ways
on November 3, 2015

Verified Purchase:Yes
Probably the best Frank Zappa video we'll ever see, with the best personnel lineup he ever had. Wicked good musicianship leaves you watching in awe, then you're laughing at the hilarious interactions with the audience. Occasionally the cameramen get in each other's way, but that's to be expected in the course of their on-the-spot meanderings -- this is no Stop Making Sense by any stretch, and it doesn't try to be. This is an impressive piece of video, a remnant of a golden age the like of which the world will never see. There was no one like Zappa, not before nor since.

I was a bit disappointed. This first Bond film seems like only a dry run for the great ones to follow. I think the filmmakers saw this as one-shot deal and had no inkling of the possibilities that lay ahead (50 years of sequels??). The script doesn't have much sparkle, the pacing is dutiful and dull, and the storytelling is sometimes unclear. Sean Connery is not very interesting at this point; he seems to be doing his job while waiting for a better role in another film. Ursula Andress is very beautiful, but the filmmakers don't give her enough to do and the character she portrays is just not compelling. They had not invented the Bond woman yet! And this villain is no Goldfinger, exhibiting none of the delicious malevolence that should drive the story. The comparison with the later Bond films is really unfair, but I can't help it. For me, this film is of mostly historical interest, and not something I will view with pleasure over and over again. But for those who do enjoy Dr. No, they will happy to know this blu ray is a must-have. The film has been gloriously preserved and restored. The colors are rich and the soundtrack is pristine. The extras are a treat and deepens one's appreciation of the film (and its shortcomings).

Seagate products always make me happy. In this case, this backup device is fast, quiet, reliable and efficient, and easy to work with as soon as it's out of the box. I'm very pleased with Seagate, again.

My favorite Bond ... James Bond
on February 10, 2015
Posted by: ITakeLotsaPictures

Verified Purchase:Yes
Unlike Mr. Bond's martinis, I was shaken AND stirred! The film has been beautifully restored. On the one hand it's quaint, but on the other hand it's never been bettered. This is my favorite Bond film, and Sean Connery always gets it right. The women are wonderful too, tough and brassy, and they use him just as much as he uses them. The villain and his henchman are delightful. The dialogue is uproarious. There's some fine ham acting from the supporting cast. No one seems the the least bit fazed by the far-fetchedness of the whole premise. The music makes a valuable contribution to the overall atmosphere of audacity. And don't miss the extras! Two commentary tracks, and a couple of short documentaries that place the film in the context of its time and ours.

Does NOT play Blurays on Mac
on February 10, 2015
Posted by: ITakeLotsaPictures
from Washington, DC
Verified Purchase:Yes
I was disappointed because the Mac logo is big and easy to see on the box. But there is some very fine, faint grey print stating "Bluray title plays on Mac OS -- Software not included". I called up LG and they told me there they have no such software, but they are "working on that". Grrrrr. Yes it plays normal DVDs on my Mac just fine, but being able to also play Blurays on my Mac was a big selling point for me, so I feel deceived by the phrase "Bluray title plays on Mac OS". There is a Bluray software disc for Windows included with the product ... not for Macs.
