[G4] Combo drive recomendations?

[John Niven]

Ronald (and anybody else!),

Are you saying that if I use an external firewire DVD,
I will not be subject to the regional code
restrictions? That sounds VERY interesting!

Does an external firewire burner get recognized by
Apple apps (like iTunes) the same way as an internal
one? Are only certain drives recognized, or can I buy
any brand?
