The quality of the end product is worth the price of the Superdrive 
alone.  Other advantages are the ease of distributing DVD via mail 
versus VHS tape, the recipient feels they are getting something of 
greater value and the media cost is now below that of VHS tape.  The 
other advantage is that a lot of business settings do not have many TVs 
were they have a computer with a DVD drive on most desks.
