MrGuruI guess I should be shopping for new TV then? I've had my vizio for over a year and a half now.Value is all about what you get for your money.A buggy blu ray player for 500 bucks is sure as hell not a value. It's buggy. In my CES land, everything should just work as advertised.An olivia 37" LCD for 500 bucks IS a value, it's a decent TV that others have found to work properly as advertised.Face it, HDDVD has movies and at under 100 bucks for players and movies around 10 bucks. The players are bug free, and the movies play. I'd say that a bug free player and 40 movies vs one single player (likely buggy, but maybe not) has a FAR better value proposition.How are you defining value? It's obviously not "what do I get for my money?"
