I want to get a DVD drive to watch DVD's on my computer. My dilemma is that i cannot afford one of these 12x DVD drives. So i was wondering why i cannot just buy a cheapy 1x or 2x drive. Since DVD-ROM disks are not commonplace yet, what is the advantage to getting a high speed drive? Isnt 1x the same speed as a stand alone player? If this dosent make since, feel free to call me an idiot, but it just dosent seem logical to me to buy a high speed drive to just watch movies. Thanks, -andy
