I got it to archive DVR'd material. Next I'm gonna try and use it to get all my audio cassettes and LP's into my MP3 library. It works like it should. Directions are a bit confusing, mostly because of the British terminology. But it could be a bit simpler. The dip switches and their settings leave a bit to be desired. More plug n play would be better. Again tho, not a bad product for the price.
