Many appreciate its compatibility with various systems and its performance in burning and reading discs. However, some customers find the price to be a bit high.

    My daughter is still old school in that she likes watching DVD's from her collection rather than downloading and taking up precious space on her hard drive. This is the only way to do that with the MacBook pro that we purchased.
