    This has been a good cost effective addition to my new computer. Most do not come with disc drive anymore. This allows me to still load music to my computer and save down pictures too.

    We had to buy this player to replace the internal DVD drive on our laptop after it completely broke down. Since most laptops do not come with the drives internally anymore, we figured we'd buy this one. It was relatively easy to set up, but I did find that I had to install the updated software from the disk that came with it to get it to work properly on our laptop. My wife has several DVDs from other regions that we were very happy to find that this drive would play without an issue!
