4.0 out of 5 stars Great quality at a price and compatibility premium, December 6, 2005
This review is from: Panasonic DVD-RAMs (LM-AF120LU5) (Electronics)
This 5-pack of Panasonic DVD-RAMs is excellent. You can use and reuse them to record your favorite TV shows without having to worry about wearing down your VCR and VHS tapes.

However, they do cost more than DVD-RW/+RW. Some DVD recorders supporting the DVD-RW(VR) mode offer similar capabilities as DVD-RAM based recorders. Also a number of PC-based DVD burners and stand-alone home electronics dvd players do not support DVD-RAM, so you have to trade-off these factors as well.

But DVD-RAMs are not as exclusive/isolated as let's say Sony's MemoryStick. DVD recorders from Panasonic, JVC, Toshiba, Samsung and LG use DVD-RAMs. Panasonic DVD players can playback DVD-RAM for sure.

So while this 5-pack of media is highly recommended for its quality and durability, I am giving it 4-stars because at the same time you have to trade-off the higher price of DVD-RAM (vs DVD-RW/+RW) and playback availability.

5.0 out of 5 stars RAM DVDs are great -- on suitable players!!!, August 14, 2005

This review is from: Panasonic DVD-RAMs (LM-AF120LU5) (Electronics)
After only a limited exposure on a new Panasonic DVD recorder, I am a fan of the DVD RAM format. While I haven't had time to test the stated 100,000 time rewriting capability (and probably won't in my lifetime) I do appreciate the continuous editing capability, including the ability to create and title chapters after the initial recording. I can see why this is now the prefered format in Japan, and why it is so pervasive in Europe. I can only hope that it will catch on here. Until it does, be aware that there are only a few newer DVD players--and precious few PCs--that can read this format.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Second Hard Drive, December 6, 2005
By 
BILL STEELE (N.Y.C., N.Y. United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Panasonic DVD-RAMs (LM-AF120LU5) (Electronics)
I have been using Panasonic DVD Ram for over three years and cannot imagine not having it. I have a Panasonic DVD PVR and I installed an LG4082 DVD burner on my PC because it reads all formats, including RAM, albeit verrrrrrry slowwwwwly. I make DVDs on the PVR and play them on my TV or if I choose, my PC, and vise versa. You can use the RAM disc as a second Hard Drive. Record your information such as Videos, CD tracks,Music vids, Photos, even some DVD Movies; edit it the way you want, transfer it to the H.D.,then after some space saving editing if necessary,transfer the finished data to a permanent CD or DVD-R disc. I used to record a whole week of one hour shows then on the weekends, edit out the chaff and commercials and file the interesting main points of the shows. Two of the programs I recorded every day, were the late lamented "Call For Help" and "The Screensavers" on the also lamented TechTV channel. I use the RAM disc in addition to my PVR Hard drive to record everything I watch in case I miss something, especially sports like baseball.( It helped me to capture Miss Jackson at the Super Bowl a couple of years ago.) Sometimes I need to do multiple slow replays in order to settle safe or out arguments with my gavone buddies. Who needs the extra fee of TIVO? I have tried the R/W system too,however,it just seems to be a little too finicky. I had 10 R/W discs and now I have 8 R/W coasters. R/W has a bad habit of finalizing a disc, even if for some reason your recording fails and you then end up with a blank disc that your recorder thinks is full and or non recordable. I cannot remember that ever happening with my DVD/RAMs; I think I'll stick with DVD/RAM for now, it's A WINNER.
