Sony - DVP-NS55P DVD Player —
Now that Warner Brothers has signed on with Blue Ray, Toshiba has thrown in the towel and wil stop producing HD DVD.Without the competition that HD DVD brought, prices will begin rising back to where they were - AND since you are not legally able to make a copy of a Blue Ray disk will get very expensive if you scratch them.
With a regular DVD you are legally able to make a copy for yourself. I have been doing that for years with first my kids and now grandkids. I don't stress out that they get a scratch on a DVD because prices have dropped for blanks to as little as $.08 per DVD. On a $29 Blue Ray DVD (current prices with $25 HD DVD or as low as $15) that will be a different story.
For the price of these players, I would rather get a game console of some kind like a Sony PS3. I can then donate the CPUs to folding.stanford.edu for protien folding to fix diseases when I am not at home at least.
