best multi-region DVD player?

||Release_Me||

I'm in the UK and looking to invest in a good multi-region DVD player. Any recommendations? I don't really want to pay any more than £50, is it possible to get a decent one for anything up to that price?

its discontinued now but i'd say there are loads on amazon by philips which would suit, just read the reviews

this bad boy looks and sounds damn good, especially at that price

I bought a multi region DVD player in Asda for about £15 a year ago. Never had a problem with it, which is more than I can say for the £250 Samsung player that it replaced.

thanks for those links. Is the one you bought already region-free or did you have to put a hack on it?

it was already region free

as long as it says multi-region in the title, you're good to go

Ok, i just bought this dvd player from a store on ebay for £30:

I emailed the seller to confirm it was multi-region capable, and she told me the warehouse had already changed it to multi-region so it'll be ready to play straight out of the box. Looks like a nice one.
