DVD recorders as players?


Does anybody see any reason to have separate units for recording and normal playback, or is it fine to do the obvious and use one unit for both tasks (as I suspect it should be, just making sure)? In other words, for playback, does a player have any advantage over recorder being used as a player?

Rich, I appreciate your feedback, especially because US online sources I have looked at tend to recommend Pioneer and Panasonic, Sony coming out as just ok.

What kind of re-usable media (-RW, +RW, RAM) can your Sony record to? How are the quality of recording and convenience of programming etc?
Rich, thanks again. One more question though: How do -RW and +RW disks compare in terms of recording quality and convenience? Is one superior to the other or does it not matter?
