While I have what I think is a very good 2 channel audio I know nothing about video. I want to get a dvd player for 500 or less, preferably new because of mechanical issues. I have looked at some of the threads but confess I don't undertand the various aspects eg progressive scan. It is for movies for the kids and us and in a few years I will put in a decent ht. I have a simple decent 3 year old 27 inch sony tv, nothing fancy. I don't need a million features I suspect. Any advice re makes, models and features would be greatly appreciated.

There are lots of OK machines in the $200 range. You don't have progressive scan, so forget about it. There are lots of websites that provide information on dvd. Since it is for a simple set up, don't spend alot of money.
- And in the $130-$150 range incl Sony, Panasonic, Toshiba, etc <nt> - bruce3825 00:49:21 11/13/02 (0)
