    Hi
    I'm one of those guyz that likes to backup his own bought copies.
    Dvd films etc

    I notice that my dvd writer Pioneer A06 has new firmware available

    I've had a few coasters - Dont play on my gear but they play on friends
    about 20%

    My firmware is 1.05 and 1.07 is offered

    Is it advisable to upgrade or stay with 1.05

    As i sense each upgrade tries to make it more dificult to back up

    any you guyz or gals please advise/comment

    regards

    I regard firmware upgrades as important.
    Fimware upgrades improves media compatibility, writing quality and eliminates some minor flaws the writer may have.

    My LG 4040B performance has improved notoriously since I updated to firmware A302. For instance, I no longer had a single coaster with ricohjpn media

    I think the same appplies to all writers, otherwise firmware updates wouldn't be necessary!

    dont be a pussy, upgrade your firmware.. i've been using 1.07 for months now and it kicks ass.. i'm actually using a hacked 1.07 (2x burn, unlimited rip, rpc, etc)..

    the only thing you have to watch out for is to not look at a dvdr on the purple side after you've burned it faster than you should have (2x speed on 1x dvdr), otherwise you will see the face of satan and he will capture your soul.

    one full minute.
