January 2005 |
| with both hardware and media prices dropping fast, the Lite-On LVW-5005 seems like the appropriate purchase to anyone seeking to claim their position within the "Digital Age." |  | |
November 2004 |
| All in all, then, it’s an okay recorder that’s fairly unremarkable when it comes to features and performance. Heck, it’s not even particularly cheap by today’s standards. | | |
October 2004 |
| The Lite-On LVW-5005 is a great bargain, and it handles an impressive range of optical media. | | |
September 2004 |
| The LVW-5005's real story is its painless multi-format magnanimity and relative ease of use. If pricing remains competitive, some additional features and refinements could make a future Lite-On DVD recorder the stepping stone of choice for a generation of VHS refugees. | | |
August 2004 |
| It is an excellent 'universal' DVD recorder, especially considering that you can purchase it for $250-275 at many popular online shops. | | |
July 2004 |
| If you want to avoid format wars by getting a machine that records on all disc types except DVD-RAM, then the LiteOn LVW-5005 may be the best choice. | | |
April 2004 |
| With all of the features found on the LVW-5005, you'd expect it to be one of the more expensive DVD recorders on the market today. Surprisingly, it's actually quite affordable. | | |
March 2004 |
| Overall, this is a fantastic product and a great flagship DVD player/recorder from Lite-On. All serious home enthusiasts would be very wise to invest in this innovative product. | | |

Review by Ulysses - 25th January 2006
Rating: 7/10
I bought one of these and took it back because of poor picture quality and difficulty of use compared to my old Panasonic DMR-E50. I also could not figure out how to change the thumbnail pic. It did,, however, read every disc that I put in it including several that the Panasonic could not read. Now, if this machine cost less then I could consider it for a second backup recorder. I just didn't think it was worth $180 US.
