DVD recommendations

[erilyn]

Dad and I were looking at dvd players (and tvs) in Harvey Norman today. I'm quite interested in the Pioneer DV-344 (or nearest model) since I think hnix, lydia_petze, veronamay and bluecrane all have it, and haven't had problems with it, and it comes all-region.

Anyone else got suggestions, recs or anti-recs? We're also either gonna have to get a new tv, or a converter to run the dvd player through, as our 20+ year old tv isn't really set up for the modern contraptions *g*. We quite liked the widescreen Grundig tvs they had, though I seem to be the only one who likes the flat screen type.

So, dvd player looking fairly likely, tv is a maybe ;)

pioneer is good

i personally have Singer (waits for the sniggering to die down) Yes, I know they're famous for making sewing machines, but they also make kick ass dvd players. I bought it a few years ago, its multi region, multi format (dvd, vcd, mp3, ect ect) and I have yet to find anything it can't play well ;)

but if you are going to get a tv/dvd, buy them together, buy the same brand, and haggle for a discount or freebies ;) my brother got a free video player with his ;)

Yup, will definitely be looking for deals *if* we get a tv as well. And thanks for the tip about the Singer, will keep an eye for it :)
