Home Video Asylum

TVs, VCRs, DVD players, Home Theater systems and more.

I wouldn't count on using a DVD player for 2 years ....

seems like once you wait two years to get a new TV set, you'll want a new DVD player by then anyways. I'd just be tempted to get a Panasonic DVD-RV32K in your case. you can find them in yahoo shopping for like $100+shipping. Also I believe Circuit City has them for $120+tax, or something like that now. (normal price is $150). You could probably spend a little more to get a progressive scan model, but that feature won't be of use until you get a different TV. I don't see how that is worth an extra $100 right now (or whatever the difference is). I personally wouldn't have enough confidence that the unit would physically last that long (most low price mass market stuff tend last last that long, especially if moving parts are involved).

I have a Toshiba 36AF61 (SDTV only, but I like it). The panasonic player I mentioned is on my shortlist.

My $0.02
