Not quite a DVD.

This isn`tquite a dvd question but i hope that somebody will help. I have decided to buy a re-writer, mainly for photos and music. However, should i go for mt rainier software or nero and what if anything is the difference? This is confusing me. Ease of use is important.

Sound for a pound?

Well, thanks to the advice i got on here i got a dvd player, a Toshiba 220 and well smart it is too, fantastic picture. However, the sound from the TV is just not good enough. What do i do, i want the smallest speakers possible, remote if possible to aviod all the wires, and fantastic sound, all for a quid. Well, ok, I can go to a little more than that but am i asking the impossible. Thanks to the wife style, and size, are the foremost considerations. Anybody got any ideas?

Help for a techno nerd

I want a DVD player but know very little about them. Multi region would be nice but apart from that i have a 28 inch tv with nicam but no surround sound and no intention of getting any. I don`t require many special features, i don`t want to copy dvd to video for example. I want a basic player that sounds good and has a good picture and want to pay as little as possible. I have seen a multi region toshiba sd220 advertised in Richer sounds for around £120, is this a good buy and a good place to get one or should i get a £60 special from Tescos or comet? I have been told to spend upwards of £30 for a quality scart lead, is this necessary? Ease of use is also important, i don`t want to spend hours working out how to use the thing!! I would be grateful ffor any help you can offer.
