This is a USB2 CD/DVD recorder/player. For anyone with only a CD or a DVD only player this is ‘All Modes’ for recording and playback. should you not have suitable software it comes with a variety.

This is far more than an average web cam, to start with it’s 2mega pixel and it has a Carl Zeiss lens. It works well in poor light and it has a great auto focus capability.
