Pioneer DV525 DVD Player
This is a great machine
I purchased the Pioneer DV-525 at a local Best Buy.  A friend had the same unit so I knew of the capabilities of this machine. I basically wanted a DVD player that could play CDR (in addition to professionally made) VCDs.  Many DVD players (if they play VCDs at all) will only play professionally made VCDs.  This player will play them all.  When Best Buy put it on sale and included 5 free DVDs, it was mine.  I use it with a Terapin VCD recorder.  I play more homemade VCDs than DVDs in this player.  The quality of this Pioneer player is awesome !!!
