I paid 120 bucks for my little Artec DVD+R/W recorder which does most of that plus it now can be found for under 99 bucks. I've add this player:

and almost anything now plays.

So that's the pair for 89 and 58 bucks or 147 bucks. The recordings are great compared to any tape unit.
Why the need for DVD-RAM?
Looking to pick up a DVD recorder that can play DVD/R , DVD/RW, DVD RAM, CD R/RW, MP3 and JPEG formats and this recorder DMR-ES20S seemed to fit .. Has anbody had this model of DMR-ES20S and if so is it worth getting for the $189 price tag?? If not is there another recorder out there with same functions with lower price that is decent?
Please advise..
Thanks, Dx
