Got a PS3 sitting here, which has been pretty much a dedicated DVD/BD player for a couple of years, but it's probably overkill, the controller isn't a great remote, and we've had trouble a couple of times playing imported/Chinese discs - I'd imagine you can get a decent plays-everything player for not very much nowadays, but I completely stopped paying any sort of attention years ago...
So, any advice? What to get, where to get it, what to pay? I probably don't want the cheapest of the cheap, but I'd hope you can get something reasonable for, let's say, well under $1000?
