Great item, when it works...

I bought this last year because my Apple SuperDrive doesn't play Blu Rays. This Pioneer Drive played everything I tried, even some majorly scratched up DVDs & CDs. I couldn't have been happier. Until about a month after I purchased it. Then it would just stop working while it was being used. The light would go out, clueing me to the fact that the connection was failing. I checked my USB Port and that wasn't the problem. So I connected it to another laptop and it continued to do it. I called Best Buy and all they told me was that I needed to call Pioneer. I took it in, and I showed them what it was doing, so they took it to their Geek Squad office and brought it back out five mins later, telling me that there's nothing wrong with it, when I'd just showed them what it was doing. So I went ahead and called Pioneer, who told me that I'd need to send it to them at my cost, and if they couldn't find anything wrong with it, then they'd send it back, again at my cost. It would only take about two months. So I gave up. It's really too bad because I really liked this unit. Now I'm looking for another one to replace this one. It's pretty bad when my friend's $30 Blu Ray Drive is still working flawlessly after two years of heavy use, and I couldn't get this one to last a month.
My Best Buy number: 2024794958
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
