"Why Bother" on
Summary: You'de think in two years Toshiba would have advanced a bit, but this latest model has the same look and menu system as my 2 year old SD-1700. Even the remote's the same. Only difference is it plays more types of media. Well for $79 I guess you can't complain, but I am. Cheaper models play more media type than this. Forget playing a CD-R full of WMA files. I have a CD-R that has 300 WMA files on it and it took this Toshiba "14 minutes" to load the CD and I'm not exaggerating. However picture quality is excellent but it's the only thing this player has going for it. VCD support is spotty at best. No SVCD support. There's really nothing keeping me from returning it to the store tommorrow.

"A great first DVD player" on
Summary: I bought this at Best Buy for under $80 after my 20-year old GE VCR died. I have a 14-year old Sony 27 in TV, so I don't need progressive scan or lots of features, just basic DVD playback for movies. Easy to setup -- just plug and play.

"Great for price." on
Summary: This DVD player is very affordable for what it offers. The remote is so comfortable and the picture is good. The only down side is that there is no optical output. Other than that, it is compact and works great!
