Panasonic RP-56 vs. RP-62?

208.31.91.100

Okay, the 62 has been out for a while now. Which one is better?

I have decided it's finally time to get a DVD player. It will play directly through a JVC TV, no surround sound or receiver. I have hooked up a sub/sat speaker system to the JVC's speaker terminals, and plan to keep that for a while. Also, no immediate plans for HDTV.

I have found a place that has leftover RP-56's for about the same price as the RP-62 ($160). Which one should I get, or should I not get either since I don't have HDTV or a Dolby digital decoder? BTW, I will likely replace the TV in 2-3 years, and will spend less than $800 for the best that will get me then.

So, what should I do so I can watch those new-fangled digital movies? All advice is appreciated.

TIA,
Ted

P.S. I did read the archives.
