Query: Buy an HD-DVD player

Had for a few days and returned it. Picture quality was good but the Toshiba HD-A2 with SD discs is better. Plus you can play HD-DVD with the Toshiba. I have no use for the other formats that the Oppo plays: SACD, DVD-Audio, PAL, and DivX. The price on the Oppo and the Toshiba is the same. In fact, the Toshiba is cheaper considering you get 8 HD-DVDs from Amazon and Toshiba when ordering any Toshiba HD player. You do the math. Oppo is overpriced and overrated. "Plays as well as players costing 2X or 3X," is outdated and misleading. It doesn't play better than the Toshiba, doesn't play HD-DVDs, no free HD-DVDs, and they both cost the same.
