I thought I would just try it once. Now I'm a HD junky.

by xyzwyatt , Jan 10, 2008
Pros: Inexpensive, great picture
Cons: Crappy remote, evolving technology
The Bottom Line: With sale/rebate this is a no-risk buy while we're waiting to see who wins the format battle.

Review: Anyone purchasing a new high definition DVD Player will have to first decide if they want to commit to the HD DVD or the Blu-Ray technology. What's the difference? About $400. We have yet to have a DVD player that has lasted more than an year or two...

Review: I wanted to get a high-definition DVD player to complement my Hitachi P50H401 50-inch 1080p-capable plasma TV. Despite the fact that the war between Blu-Ray and HD-DVD is far from over and my overall preference for Blu-Ray (mostly due to movie...
