What DVD Drive do you all think I should get?

LTD-163D

I want to be able to use:

Bascially everything.

Could someone maybe take a screen shot of Nero Info Tool with those drives?

Get the 166s it will do everything including DVDram and most protected audio cd's the others mentioned can't do.
They all rip audio fast and also do pretty good on video.

Would this be better than screen shots of InfoTool?

For what it is worth, InfoTool for the 166S shows 48x read speed, 512 KB buffer, and all the boxes under "Supported Read Features" checked off.

InfoTool isn't 100% accurate anyway. A drive might be able to read a certain DVD format, even though it wasn't checked off.

I decided to go with the LTD-166S. I'm not getting it until March at the earliest anyways.
