Panasonic DVD-RV32K DVD Player, Black
a great buy
I have been happy with this DVD player for well over a year now.  I have read the other reviews and must admit that I cannot add much more than already has been said, but I'd like to contribute a little in the area of longevity for the product.  I purchased this last year in April and the manufacturing date on mine is for 2002 of that year.  I have been playing DVD's like mad (this is my first player--a big step up from VHS!) and I have not encountered any problems at all.  As one reviewer has already mentioned:  the display on the player is very nice.  It gives out the chapter you are on as well as the time.  The &quot;on the fly&quot; options you can execute are very nice.  The player reads mp3s, cd-r(w)'s, wma, etc., very well and shows them in an on-screen tree type format.  The only downside is the remote--with the buttons being small and having no backlight.  This is a great buy for a very awesome price.  It has suited my every need and has given me great service for over a year of hard play.
