Panasonic DVD-CV52 5-Disc DVD Player
I need to defend this unit
... The sound and video quality is incredible, which is why i purchased it.  After reading about the disasters some people had with operation, i had to  see how bad it really was.  the answer... really not that bad.  the remote is poorly designed, but aside from having to hit stop twice to reset a disc, it's pretty easy to use.  it's not very responsive to commands if it's already in process, but considering it costs ... has a 192kHz D/A converter, a five disc tray, progressive scan, and outstanding picture and sound (running the optical wire), i would highly recommend it.
