Default Which DVD Player is more reliable?

Although Philips stuff may not be the most pleasant to work on, and their
service info sucks, I have found it in general to be quite well built, and
reasonably reliable. Iam interested in what negative experiences you might
have had to make you feel that it is "the worst" ?? Do you feel that the
Memorex would be a better bet? We might be seeing a difference in products
here between the US and UK.

I used to have a recent Philips DVD player and it was not made by
Philips. The quality of the boards and components was similar to a $9
clock radio. There were also lots of firmware bugs which made it
almost unusable (and there were no updates available). When I got
tired of it I ended up throwing it away rather than donating it (I
didn't want anyone else to waste money of it).
