Philips DVP642 DivX-Certified Progressive-Scan DVD Player
Best at any price.
To all who don't give this 5 stars because it isn't perfect, please get real.  This player does have problems with certain combinations of encodings, but nothing else comes close.  This machine allows me to watch 97% of my thousand CD's that were just sitting on spindles in my office. <br /> <br />Match this with a DVD burner and you have unparalleled flexibility.  For instance, you can put multiple VCD's and SVCD's on the same DVD. Your video experience no longer need be interrupted to get up and put in the 2nd SVCD. <br /> <br />This purchase will be my 5th unit. <br /> <br />(Oh, there is a negative side.  If you don't get on your stationery bike, you run the real risk of putting on some serious weight while you sit for hours.) <br />
