DVD Players

There's really no way to set up a good Home Theater System without having a DVD Player as an integral component. One of the fastest growing segments of the digital revolution, with over 17 million units sold in 2002 alone, the DVD Player explosion is due to dramatic price drops and the huge selection of discs for the machines. The picture quality is far higher than with VHS, and even the issue of being able to record is now being bridged by DVD Players with recording capability as well as Personal Video Recorders such as Tivo making recording easy.

Even the least expensive DVD Players, which can often be found for well under $100, offer a great viewing experience, especially as part of a nicely set-up Home Theater System with superb audio. Other features of DVD Players like multiple disc capability or progressive scan can be helpful, though progressive scan can only really be appreciated with a television equipped for HDTV. Another wonderful bonus of a DVD Player is that it effectively makes buying a CD Player obsolete, as a DVD Player can play your CDs beautifully.
