Hey peeps!
My Sony 360 - bless its soul - is starting to read less discs and is having problems on some discs in areas just out of the blue nowhere near the layer change.
So, since DVD players are so cheap these days, and my Sony was virtually a 2nd generation player, I'm looking for an inexpensive DVD player until I can afford one that has SACD and DVD-A on it.
I don't need progressive scan since I don't have an HD TV and won't be getting one for a few years.
I just need a decent menu for setup, component outs, not worried about dual lasers since this won't be my CD player, and I don't need to worry about whether the remote is any good either.
Aspect ratio control would be nice and pic zoom would be a bonus, though not really needed.
I don't want to spend much but this will probably have to do me for a couple of years.
Any ideas? Any players to stay away from.
Remember, I just need something half decent to play my DVD's until I can afford a proper one with Sage, no chroma, SACD, DVD-A, yada yada.
Thanks peeps!

Edit: Although I don't want to pay this much, what do you think of the new Denon 910. I can get it for $388 at Advance. But then, there are other players that I can get for about $200, but are they going to stand up?
