Sony RDR-VX555 Tunerless DVD Recorder/VHS Combo Player?

i cannot locate any reviews on this product. i need to buy a sony to be compatible with my parents recorder/dvd player so we can exchange dvd’s but i am concerned from review of previous sony models that you cannot record stations such as HBO, Cinemax, Starz, etc due to copyright restrictions, the only drawback to sony. i’m hoping someone has this player and can comment on it’s features and restrictions. thanks

Yeah Sony product is very annoying in this one, I’m still remember when they player won’t support MP3 because of copy protection issue. But we can’t blame them since Sony own most of movie production in Hollywood and some recording company.
My suggestion please go with other brand.
