umm in 10 years... you'll probably want a bluray player cause you can't find anything on dvd anymore. however.. until you find one in a price you like.. maybe a used dvd player from a pawn shop/good will/garagesale would work for you? a bluray player would add to the versatility of your system also. thats the trouble with new stuff.... i got the same problem just that my dvd player hasn't given up yet.
