    Yep Toshiba SD330E is an excellent player. Successor to mine, and if it's as good as the quality mine is, well that's a bargain"!

    as Tesla and Howard have said, the toshiba 330e, awesome buy at the moment, £80 delivered for the multiregion at amazon is i believe the best listed price, but if you're cheeky (like me), go into richer sounds and ask them to beat it by a tenner (take a printout of the amazon offer), don't take their suggestions of an alternative player!

    and for £70 (or £80) for a very fine, award winning, multiregion big branded dvd player, you really can't go wrong

    oh, and the sd220e is a very fine player too, the 330e is just an updated model of it, i've got both

    I've had a Toshiba SD220E for about a year now, very happy with it.

    So, another vote for the SD330E.

    Mine won't play SVCD's though. It's OK with VCD's & mp3's.

    I know the SD330E is a very good player, BUT for an extra £10 you can have the Pioneer DV464 from Amazon. A saving of £60 off the RRP! (BARGAIN!!) and it's multi-region modded .
    Personally i'd recommend the pioneer, you should have a look .
