i'm shopping for my 1st dvd player. this will be used with a pioneer elite 50" rear projection tv, which was the last model made before pioneer changed to the 16:9 aspect ratio. i realize i'm well behind the current technology curve, but i've been satisfied with this pioneer set for 10 years and probably won't be upgrading to hdtv for a few more years.
i've looked at reviews in consumer reports and on cnet, and while there are certainly some players that are more highly recommended than others, it still is not clear to me which ones if any would be preferable for use with this old projection tv. i obviously don't need progressive scan right now. i also don't care about MP3 and some of the other bells and whistles -- i just want to get the best picture quality possible, hopefully without sinking a bundle into something that may need replacing when i upgrade to hdtv.
i sure would appreciate any suggestions. thanks!
