That is not a bad idea. I read a couple of reviews and it looks like a sound option if I need to purchase a new player. That being said I guess the only input I still need to make my decision is someone that has an a3000 tv that used a standard dvd player. If the picture quality produced by the tv's chip itself is similar in quality I will hold off untill blue ray players drop in price. Let me rephrase that... Untill Blue Ray burners and media drop in price lol.
