Whatever we don't use always ends up in the hands of relatives, I did keep the Toshiba A2 for playing the HD DVDs we have.

I have one hd dvd so keeping it for on disc isn't in the plans.

The title pretty much says it. What do you do with your old dvd players.


Provided it still works, donate it to a church or school. Our church has a prison outreach ministry that recently requested dvd players. We didn't have a 'spare' so we bought a $49 DVD player and donated it.

There is probably a private school in your neighborhood that could find a use for it.

I ordered the Panasonic DMP-BD60. I know it's a cheap one but it get's fairly good reviews.

Donate them to a local school. Easy for me because my wife works at a school.

Next time there's a format war, I'm going to buy two of each kind of player just to offset your lack of participation in early adoption.

Make that 3. I owned exactly one VHS player, an expensive Sony unit that lasted forever, one cheap DVD player attached to my computer (well actually one in each computer) that I will pull out and put into each successive build and now one bluray player which, hopefully, with its upgradeable firmware, will last me until the next format comes around.

Consumer products companies must hate me...
