That all depends on what you are looking for leemus.

Does it have to be region free, macrovision disabled, play MP3`s, have a built-in decoder, play CD-R and/or CD-RW`s, etc...

Take a looktrough some postings to see what other people liked or disliked about there players.

It doesn`t need to be region free.

What is macrovision?

Am i right in thinking that a buit in decoder is only usefull if you have a separate receiver?

I have a Philips dolby widescreen with 5 speakers, so i want something that compliments that.

Also, i had Sky Digital installed on Saturday, and because of lack of Scart sockets now on the TV ( the Digibox & VCR have taken them) i think i will need to run the DVD through the Digibox (thats the only place that i can find a spare Scart socket!)- that`s OK innit?
