Konka KD1800U1 DVD Player
It Is Worth the Money!!!
I am not a huge electronics freak so this was a great puchase for me...my first DVD player and what a good looking bargain! I don't care about a fancy remote because all of my other remotes are not backlit,and I have the intelligence to memorize button locations after a few runs.  As for drive noise well... I will admit about 15 percent of the time the drive will act up and a bit of noise, but again I am intelligent enough to block it out and turn up my stereo speakers.  It plays movies as well as any brand I have seen and sounds as equal.  The fancy rear connections that may be missing do not mean much to me right now, but hell I have other things to worry about in life than the best of the best DVD players, when in my mind I have exactly what I need...a superior affordable Konka!
