I think you are absolutely right...
Each dvd/cd drive does come with drivers. And installing them does provide more (or better) functionality. Of course Windows has generic drivers for most brands, but that is just for basic support.
As for buying a new one, that is true though, they cost very little. If my drive would mallfunction I wouldn't bother trying to fix it either and I would just buy a new one...
