I am looking for a standalone DVD player for my folks. They would like it to play MP3s. I don't know enough about home DVD players to make an educated choice. I don't want a cheapie unit since it is for my folks and anything I get them I will have to troubleshoot for them also. Does anyone know of some good sites where I can do some comparison shopping to make a decision?

Thanks

Elemental007 already provided some great websites (esp HomeTheaterForum.com) but I would also check out DVDTalk.com's DVD Hardware forum and of course our very own Hot Deals forum which currently has a few hot deals on DVD Players. Just go to the Hot Deals forum and search for DVD or if you're lazy (like me) I have listed them below:

Apex AD-660 DVD Player for $79.99

Apex AD-500W DVD Player for $92.87

Apex AD-3201 DVD Player for $124.99

Oritron DVD Player for $99

Panasonic DVD-RV31K DVD Player for $164.99

Note some of these deals may have already expired but this goes to show you just how many DVD Player deals we have in the Hot Deals forum.

Thanks guys. I missed out on the Apex AD-660 at CC. Tried to pick one up today and they were all out. I guess I'm better off anyway since I would rather spend more oney and get quality. My parents are kind of technology challenged so a ore expensive DVD player would probably be easier for them to use. My mom has this new found love of mp3s and I have to get them something to play them thru their stereo. The DVD is actually a side benefit here.
