Hi:

I currently have a 3 year old DVDEpress decoder that came with my Compaq computer. Unfortunately, neither COmpaq nor Mediamatics(who make DVDExpress) has Windows 98 upgrades to this decoder. Mediamatics makes a decoder called DVDMatics, which is either 14.95 or 39.95 depending on how fancy you want it.

But I didn't see DVDMatics listed as a decoder on this site or forums...only WinDVD or PowerDVD.

SO which is the best? Does anyone use DVDMatics? Or are WinDVD and PowerDVD the best?

I would like to upgrade because I cannot get to a special website via the Star Wars Phantom Menace DVD. I click on starwars.com in the DVD, and it tells me I need a DVD player, so obvioulsy, my player is out of date. I can play DVD movies without a problem, but I can't take advantage of extra features.


Thx
