DVD players have dropped dramatically in practice for a while now.. Up until yesterday, I played my DVDs with my PS2 (I played more DVDs than games). I finally decided to pick up a very cheap player to play of the DVDs some of my 'merican co-workers bring. The player came already with the latest firmware.
First DVD in the player: Transformers. Surprisingly, it's a very good movie! Best animated series to movie adaptation ever!
For future reference: No disc - Power on - Subtitle button - 57538 - 9 - Subtitle button - Power off
