Pioneer has been leading the DVD recording race, especially when we consider that almost all of the previous models supported the fastest DVD-R writing speeds. The A07 was the only recorder that supported 8X±R recording speeds while the A08 continued the tradition by supporting 16±R writing speeds along with 4X DL writing. At the end of January 2005, Pioneer started shipping the DVR-109, which supports the fastest available writing/re-writable speeds, making the comparison with NEC ND-3520A and Plextor PX-716A real interesting for most users
