product does what it says it will do
|Posted .I live in a 3rd world country without internet. It is also unsafe to be out after dark and no tv channels where I live. DVD's literally save me, providing entertainment when I need to relax. My new mac does not have a dvd drive so the reason for the purchase. Love it.
