I might be getting the Philips DVP642 nice site btw.
I have had a Sony chipped player since the year 2002 (my first DVD player) and it’s still going strong.
Thought about getting a Sony player(they are really nice) but not sure it would be easy to get hacked.
Mine was a brand new one from a company that pre-hacks it for you, but I cannot remember the firm’s name now.
One that was just discussed/recommended on the disc connected: >> Amazon.de (amazon usa)
