David,
I agree. Look at Denon (who's considered mass market) who replaced last years $1200 Denon DVD-3800 with the $2000 DVD-5900. The $849 DVD-2800 MkII was replaced with the $1000 DVD-2900. Word is that the new flagship player could cost $1000 more than the $3500 Denon DVD-9000 did since Denon will be marketing it to go along with it's soon to be announced pre/pro/amp separates. So while the number of manufactuers (panasonic and Toshiba for example) producing mega-bucks players has decreased, there is always a void in the market to fill for those who simply don't want mass market products.
