I'm considering picking one of these up at Costco. Before I plunk doen the $$, however, I have a few question.

1. Once a disk has been finalized, does it contain standard VOBs, etc. that can be edited on a PC with DVD authoring/editing software?

2. Are the finalized disks fairly compatible with most stand-alone dvd players?

3. What sound format(s) does it use for DVDs it creates?

TIA.
