I agree wholeheartedly.  Another bogus money grab is all that crap really is.  
Probably a better way to digitize audio visual then doing it in real time is to 
simply record to tape and then convert that later.  That way there is no need 
for the latest hardware that proper software hasn't been written for anyhow, 
and if it is, then it is highly unlikey that it is available for general 
consumption.

Also, if DVD playing is all one really wants then a suitable DVD player and 
either renting or buying whatever stupid DVDs is probably way cheaper and 
better then some lame attempt to pirate DVDs and producing expensive crappy 
knockoffs.  Man is that stuff (pirated) ever pathetic.  What a joke.

Amen.  It definetly doesn't take much to do it right.
