Video Asylum

I am a 2-channel audio guy so video takes the back seat (way back). I have been using a $250CAN JVC DVD player for a few years that has developed a loading problem that is getting worst all the time. I have always appreciated the picture quality over VHS however.

I was wondering what is the word on best bang for buck current players, and also what price level should be considered to get quality. I use a standard 28" TV (audio out to to the 2-cahannel stereo) so p-scan not important but component (RGB) output would be nice. Does it make sense to use one of todays ultra-cheap players (eg. $70) until video becomes important (to me)?
