Ok, someone out there must be able to give me an educated opinion on which DVD
player to buy...  I am trying to decide between the Toshiba 3109 and the Sony
530.  Which do people prefer, heard good/bad things about, etc.?

I work as an electronics technician for Best Buy which sells both plus I
personally own the sony 530.  I am just wondering a few things first.  What
type of receiver do you own?  Per say digital processor, brand name, things
like that.  What do you want your DVD player to do for you?  I was going to go
with the Toshiba dual deck DVD and that option is very nice because many
movies now come with two DVD's.  The reason I bought sony was because I have
the sony strde-925 receiver with DTS and I could operate both units from the
receiver remote.  IF brand isn't a preference I would stick with the Toshiba
and I've done some work with them and everything looks pretty nice, good
quality on the worksmanship.  The other part I would like to bring up is do
you have any knowledge on regionalization?  That not all DVD players cannot
play burned music CD's or video CD's (video CD's are a different type of
compression format than DVD's).  Any questions just e-mail me and I can help
you out as best as I can.  I don't post in this group too often so if you want
to ask me anything you will need to e-mail me.
