If your wanting a good player for a decent price, go with the Pioneer 563A DVD player. I just got the 667A which is the same player and the sound and picture are great. Especially for the price. Check out the reviews. Almost all that have bought one love it. Plus it plays SACD's and DVD Audio disks. There isn't another player on the market that can do all that for the same price. The Samsung HD931 upconverts the signal for a better picture. This is just a stepping stone for high deffinition DVD players which are already being sold in Japan. I wouldn't bother with it.
