Are there any reasonably priced DVD recorders with component input
(preferably with digital audio input too), and without a built-in hard
drive? Having a built-in VCR would be a plus.

I don't think you'll ever see DVD recorders with component or digital
audio inputs, due to the MPAA and other organizations worried about
piracy.

Well, I saw one at Target the other day; I don't recall the brand,
though. But I don't trust any electronics product sold at Target,
K-mart, Wal-mart, Costco, etc.; they're usually at or near the bottom of
the line models or brands.

I did a quick search and there are plenty of name brands at around $200.
(I checked circuit city and I'm sure all of the other stores have them
too.)

I agree with Brad as none of the ones I looked at had digital or
component inputs.

I have since seen a post at AVS Forum that says Sony does have a DVD
recorder that has component inputs. The model number was not mentioned.
