Home Video Asylum

TVs, VCRs, DVD players, Home Theater systems and more.

I went "the other route."

If I knew then what I know now I wouldn't have, but I'm not overly upset about it. My Toshiba player cost less than $200 and came with 10 free discs. It is a superb up-sampling DVD player, and many DVDs played with it can be almost as good as the average HD programming I get on my TV. I just purchased a number of HD DVDs for half-price, most at less than half the price of the Blu-Ray version if it exists; one doesn't even exist on Blu-Ray. I'll now wait until there is a standard for Blu-Ray, which there isn't now. At some point there will be a standard and prices for a quality player will be quite reasonable, and then I'll get one. I fully expect I'll get my money's worth out of it, so you don't have to feel sorry for me at least.
