It should be an improvement on the Sony 900 DVD recorder.
I'd say that Sony have listened to owners of the older model DVD
player and have made improvements such as the option to split a long
program so it can be saved on several DVD's.
Sony have always made quality products so I'd say you should be happy
with your choice of DVD player.
