Why do i need to constantly update firmware if they workd the way they are out
of the box? They have yet to puke on ANY brand of disk fed them. 1X , 4X , 8x,
16X media has all worked fine on these units. I dont need a hack or such to
disable macrovision ans i use a pro TBC made by FOR-A

The only thing the GX7 doesnt support is DVD+R , but thats due to the players
age. The DVD+RW camp never originally planned to do a write once + format.
