Toshiba SD1700 DVD Player
Fundamental flaw (so does price really matter?)
I bought this unit and was very happy with it for the first two months - good picture, audio, and price.  However it now stops, or freezes, my movies at various times while I'm watching them(I've recently seen others complain of this too).  This is very annoying as it totally disrupts the flow and atmosphere of the movie.  What good are the other functions (or even the &quot;good&quot; price) if the unit can't perform its most basic function.  This is a fundamental design flaw.  Watching DVD movies is great and I highly recommend it, just don't do it on this player!
