Pros: Easy to use, good quality audio & video, Good manufacturer support, inexpensive Cons: Limited software, update software IMMEDIATELY, acts as lightning rod (yours may not)
I recently purchased the ADS Instant DVD 2.0 in hopes of turning my collection of 500 or so VHS tapes into DVD's. Installation was easy enough: plug in the power & USB 2.0 cables, plug in the audio & video, install the software and I was up & running. ...

Pros: Powerful editing software, can do many tasks to make your old videos look professional. Cons: Software is difficult to quickly learn. Manual (you have to print) lacks precise direction.
This product produces decent video reproduction. I have done a direct VHS to DVD without a hitch. My next project was a number of takes of my kids growing up in a span of four years. I edited all the fast swipes, snow, etc., put them all together, added titles and scene changes, and some music to the title and chapter menus. Sent a copy to my sister and she was very impressed.
However, it took some time to learn the software (Ulead Video Studio 7). This is an enormous task getting analog to digital and editing, you'd better have a computer that can handle it. I have a P-4 512ram 40 gig hard drive, and handled it well.
I would like to compare this with another brand in the same price range without having to pay for it to see if there is anything better, I sort of doubt it.
