    Great Blu-ray DVD player The one thing I would've appreciated knowing at time of purchase is it needs software to be able to function.

    This particular unit came wkth v1.03 of drive firmware and is compatible with the 3rd party firmware to allow UHD tipping. The unit feels a bit flimsy but is holding up well. The USB cable does require 2 inputs side by side so this might not be a good option if you are using a laptop that is oddly laid out.

    The items does provide access the movies, and I can project from the computer to my LG large screen TV. But it doesn't Turbo Tax disc, etc. It also requires I reload software to read the dvd each time I look at a movie.

    I'm using this in a weird scenario (in Linux) and this worked with no issues. my Pioneer model that I purchased a few years ago started having problems recently with some discs, but this was able to read them no problem. The price does seem like it could be a bit high, but it does drop to more reasonable amounts from time to time, so keep an eye out for that. Keep in mind that you're going to need to available USB ports.
