I recently bought a Thomson DTH 3600 DVD player, it was an excellent purchase even if I do say so myself. What an invention DVD players where, it is amazing to think what they can put on a single DVD. There are a multitude of features on the player, my favourite of which is the multiple zoom function which in just brilliant. you can ...  Read the complete review

The DVD player is simply a great invention. It allows you to watch movies in a more up-to-date and modern way. You can switch from frame to frame using the I already installed computer which is so easy to use. I bought mine when it first came out and I didn't knwo what to expect. I was surprised about how much quality and enjoyment it gave me. ...  Read the complete review

Having been a regular visitor and member of the DVDTalk site for quite some time, it was all just a little too “American” and geared towards our friends across the pond. Even though it was packed with information, it was not suited exactly to what I needed, and thus I began to look for somewhere more suitable. A friend pointed me in ...  Read the complete review

I stumbled across the DVDTimes web site entirely by accident, when I was looking into buying a dvd player. What I found was a wealth of information about anything dvd-related. You want the latest news on DVDs, check out the site. You want to know how how good a film is, or when it's going to be available? Just click on the URL below, and look ...  Read the complete review

I recently bought a Scan SC2000 DVD player from Scan for £189 – it arrived next day as promised and was easily set up straight from the box with no problems – all a good start! The cables they supplied were a Svideo and an ariel which can get you started straight away but if you want an RGB connection you will have to buy a Scart ...  Read the complete review

DVD has one stand-out advantage - quality. The quality of the image is excellent. I mean REALLY good. Sharp, smooth animation with crystal-clear detail. Then there's the extras. Most new DVDs have loads of extra features. For instance, the Tarzan DVD has a chapter select (choose a part of the film, from about 40 available), captions ...  Read the complete review

A friend of mine bought one of these a while ago, and has been ranting about it since, so when I finally got a large pay-check (overworked and underpaid kinda thing) I was persuaded to buy one. They are, quite simply, brilliant. The best comparison I can find is the difference between audio CDs and cassettes. The picture quality ...  Read the complete review

When I bought the 710 about a year ago, I already had a DVD player in my PC. My DVD library consisted mainly of region 1 DVD's. For this reason I wanted to find a budget DVD player that would play region 1 and 2 DVD's without fuss. The 710 ( after sifting through a few newsgroups) came out as one of the favorites. ...  Read the complete review

Yes DVDs are good but they are overrated and overpriced at the moment. Just as VCRs were when they came out. All you can do with them at the moment is watch DVDs and you have to buy DVDs from a particular region in order for it to work. Being someone who has worked in electrical retail over the past few years a DVD player isnt ...  Read the complete review

Fancy a DVD player that plays both CD and DVD movies? A DVD that plays Dolby digital sound? Look no further. The Alba has to be the best budget player on the market right now for the money - a mere £150! And you get quite alot for your money too. Complete with remote control, this system is also pretty slick looking. I was ...  Read the complete review

JMB's JMBDVD3000 is probably one of the most cheapest DVD players in the market in the UK, but that price in no way describes the quality of this fabulous unit. I really can't justify this product enough in words, but basically if you're on a bit of a budget, then I can wholeheartedly recommend this player. The first most ...  Read the complete review

This is just a suggestion, but anyone with a reasonably basic PC and willing to invest a few hundred quid can watch DVD's at their best resolution and in full widescreen, with cinema standard 3D surround sound, and save themselves many hundreds of pounds by not buying an expensive widescreen TV and DVD player. If you are a couch ...  Read the complete review

CD ROM drives are the worst part of your computer as they are forever braking down. In the first year of purchasing my computer I have had, six fitted with my guarantee, all different makes, and models. However, when my guarantee runs out that when I should worry. My present is decent 24x Max and touchwood I have had for 3 months but the only ...  Read the complete review

Looking for a multi-region DVD player? Looking for a DVD player with more than just a SCART connector on the back? Looking for a DVD player that costs less than £150.00? The ALBA DVD 103 is a great DVD player. That may surprise you -- it certainly surprised me -- because ALBA is not a name that I associate with desirable ...  Read the complete review

About 5 weeks ago I bought a Dvd player. And what a difference it has made for home cinema.The picture is twice as sharp and the sound is perfect in every way. As for the dvds themselves they are brilliant. With so many special features it doubles the time sitting on the sofa. With great advantages such as scene selection. You can jump to your ...  Read the complete review

Yes dvd is the way forward its crystal clear playback makes it very inviting.there is a down side manufacturers cannot agree on a standard of disc and multi layered discs can and will cause problems in the future.The new James bond film just released is multi layered and customers are already experiencing after scene 12 a distorted picture can ...  Read the complete review

Mico? Who? I don't blame you for being puzzled, I hadn't heard of them until recently, but big names aren't everything - look below and judge for yourself. MiCO is a Chinese firm and aims to compete with the big boys from Japan by packing theire redorders with features and selling them cheaply. This player will play the ...  Read the complete review

DVD's have now been out for approx 1.5 years in england, but were available to buy in hong kong and america about 5-6 years ago....my dvd cost me around £400, and has improved my home entertainment system over 100%...DVD's are the modern 'video players and instead of using videos, they use high quality discs (the size of cd's) and ...  Read the complete review

I think that DVD is the bees knees. I love the fact that the discs don't wear out if you watch them over and over again. I love the fact that they don't take up as much room as videos. I have a DVD player built into my computer with a set of Dolby Pro-Logic speakers. The best thing of all is that it means that I can have a film on ...  Read the complete review
