It's easy to fall into the logical fallacy that you just did - " new stuff is expensive" but in reality, it's that "more stuff is expensive and I want more stuff" As soon as we have full VR, people will still go to the movies, but probably not as often, not when you can have a more immersive experience in your own home. As soon as we have full wall TVS that are utility cheap ( $100 for a roll up OLED that goes across the wall will be cheap enough for everyone most likely withing 10 years, but definitely in 20 years) most people probably will be satisfied with that as an entertainment hub. As soon as we have self driving cars, most people will stop caring about their cars as a status symbol. Malls are becoming a thing of the past. You used to see everyone in the shopping malls, it's where kids hung out when I was a kid. I can't remember the last time I heard a teenage girl say " we're going to the mall, see you later!" Things are changing ( for the better) in my opinion.

Some examples:
The cost of TV's. Here's a chart of the cost of a TV over time That's true comoditization of a consumer good. in 2001 I bought one of the first gen 1080P tvs - paid $6K for it. Now that same TV is blown away by a $600 set that anyone can get at Walmart. 90% cost reduction in 10 years. This will happen with OLED and with 4K tvs (oled wnet form $100K to $1800 for a 55" set in 5 years)

Same with Computers - typically 12% decrease annually over time.

The amount we pay has stayed static not because the price didn't go down, but because newer replacements in both cases were bigger better and more powerful than their predecessors. There was a time when having a color television in your living room was a mark of wealth. Same with a computer. Now those are completely ubiquitous.

There was a time when having a smartphone was only a business too ( blackberry) and then after a while it was only for rich people with too much money to throw at toys. Go read This article on smartphones form 15 years ago. That phone ( if they even sell something comparable) is the cheap throw away phone that providers use as a loss leader now to get you to buy a new phone.

I paid $500 for my first DVD player - it was one that I could put in my computer, not even a full IO system that w can get on [amazon] (http://www.amazon.com/Sony-DVPSR510H-DVD-Player-Upscaling/dp/B007F9XHAY/ref=sr_1_4?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1451660686&sr=1-4&keywords=dvd+player) for $40 Blu ray beat out hd-dvd becuase sony included one in the PS3 - at the time ( in 2006) it was $1100 for a blu ray player. here's one for $60

Something a little more close to today: high end video cards. I just bought an Nvidia 960, which cost me $180 - the 970 comparison here. The 960 came out about 3 months after the 970 or maybe a little more. The 970 still costs over $300, but the performance difference is not 2x, more like about 20% better.

Neophilia is a real thing, and it drives a lot of consumerism. There will always be something to buy and something to have. I very rarely buy things when they're just out for the first because of seeing this over the last 20 or so years, it's a TON of money down the drain to have the biggest baddest thing on the market right when it comes out.


u/CaptainGibb · 2 pointsr/martialarts

You probably can, not sure how much that would cost. You'd have to double check that japan uses the same outlets at the US. I think they do but it's best if you double check. I get a lot of movies from the UK (region 2/B) and almost bought a UK player not realizing their outlets are different.

You might be better off just picking up a region free dvd player though if you plan on picking up a lot of Japanese and other region dvds. I found a cheapish one on amazon:

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B071XRGM7S/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_c_api_.yGVzbRF3RE35

Also if you import a lot just get a region free blu ray player (they also play dvds of all regions). I bought one awhile back and it was worth every cent.

u/googoogjew · 4 pointsr/doctorwho

What year are you living in? You can play Blu-Rays on both current gen consoles, and the PS3, and on separate Blu-Ray players from at least 25 different brands, for as low as £30 on Amazon, with free P&P (or far cheaper, if you look for something used). Blu-Rays can store vast amounts more data than DVDs, and at far higher bitrates, allowing them to play 2d or 3d video at full 1080p resolution, and on certain equipment at up to 4k UHD with HDR color. Even as a casual viewer, on a modern HDTV, you should be able to instantly tell the difference. As for them being "just a fad," they have been the dominant physical medium for home video for around 10 years now. Granted, you wouldn't see any benefit from the added resolution and bitrate on any of the older Doctor Who episodes, basically up until series 5 of the new show, so if that's all you want to watch or own physically, Blu-Ray is perfectly adequate for your use case. And of course, if you do watch other content, but you don't notice enough of a difference between the two to justify the added cost of a new player and more expensive discs, then by all means, save your money, I'm glad you're happy. But to go around saying Blu-Ray is "just a fad" that "only plays on like two machines" makes you seem ill informed and pretentious, and is simply incorrect.

u/sharkamino · 2 pointsr/BudgetAudiophile

For $300 to $400 for music and possible use with a TV, an AV receiver and a pair of bookshelf speakers will be much better.

Then you also have HDMI switching as well as onboard crossovers and the option of adding more speakers for surround sound later if you want to. Just as easy to setup as a system in a box.

Receivers:

u/BeardedAlbatross · 2 pointsr/BudgetAudiophile

Standalone non-portable CD players are a niche item and the only people in the market for a modern unit are "audiophiles" who may build around the player and want it to have an amazing DAC. A lot of these units also have digital outputs for use with a dedicated DAC in their system which negates that benefit anyway since it's just being used as a digital transport. Luckily CD's are easy to get bit-perfect reading from.

Just pick up this cheap Sony DVD player and hook it up to your receiver. It plays CDs just fine.

u/sk9592 · 1 pointr/hometheater

Ok, so these would be my recommendations for that price range:

Amplifier ($64) - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003OELGGG/

This is a very reasonable amp for the price. It is pretty good sound quality for this price range. It also has three RCA inputs in the back, and a 3.5 aux input in the front. This allows you to connect up to 4 different audio sources to it. It seems like you want to have several difference sources, so that's good.

This amp provides 120W per channel @ 4ohms. That means for a typical 8ohm bookshelf speaker, you're looking at 60W per channel. That means it can get really fucking loud.

Speakers ($65) - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002RMPHMU/

These are actually excellent bookshelf speakers for the price and several times better sound quality than the ones you originally linked to. These come with speaker cable, so you don't need to buy that separately.

USB Charger ($11) - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01LCDJ7LG/

You wanted USB charging for an iPhone/iPad. This Anker charger is very high quality and provides 2.4 amps to each of its two USB ports. That means it will charge two iPads at full speed, and charge an iPhone significantly faster than the cube charger that it comes with.

Bluetooth Receiver ($23) - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00KXYXXK2/

Pretty self explanatory. It receives bluetooth audio from a phone/tablet/laptop and sends it to the amp. It can be connected to the amp through a 3.5mm to RCA cable. It is also NFC enabled so it can pair with Android phones super easily.

CD Player ($35) - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007F9XHBI/

With was actually pretty tough. No one seems to sell stand alone CD players anymore. There is no market for them. You might as well plug in a portable CD player. The next best option is to plug in a DVD player through RCA audio cables (the red and white ones). It might seem silly, but it works just fine. You don't need to plug into a TV at all, since there are playback controls on the DVD player itself, and the small screen on it will tell you track info. Honestly, there is no point in buying a new one. If you have an old DVD/CD player laying around the house or can buy one on Craigslist for $10, go for it.

Record Player ($99) - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008872SIO/

Recored playback seemed to be kinda optional for you, so this will take you over budget a little. However, I already mentioned, all-in-one systems with a record player built-in sound terrible and ruin your records. The record player I'm suggesting really is the cheapest decent one you can buy new. It's the one to get if you care about good sound quality and not ruining your records.

This nice thing about this set-up is that it's completely modular. Over the years, you can upgrade or replace individual components without trashing the whole thing.

Let me know if you have any questions about these components or anything else.

u/[deleted] · 4 pointsr/reddit.com

Sony shit used to be pretty OK, as far as name brand stuff in electronics stores go (Aiwa, Kenwood, Sanya, all that level of gear). But I totally gave up on them after I realised everything i'd bought from them since the 90s lasted almost exactly 13 months, then it would break. I swear they must have engineers working on it so they only last a little longer than the warranty does.

Add in to that the rootkits, the crazy DRM schemes, the MP3 players that didn't even play MP3s, the premium price for substandard gear... the list goes on.

These days I buy Philips gear. Simple reason, they don't have a media wing like Sony do. They have nothing to protect with DRM. So you know when you get their DVD players they play anything, are easily region freed and the latest ones even play DiX off USB sticks :) Plus they make gorgeous screens, those new imacs use their LCDs.

https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1003568-REG/technical_pro_rx38ur_receiver_with_usb_sd.html

https://www.amazon.com/Technical-Pro-Professional-Amplifier-Bluetooth/dp/B06XFWL7GB

I actually bought one of those "technical pro" receivers and despite the exaggerated wattage, ended up with a decent sounding Analogue stereo receiver. I know some people will downvote me, especially since they are similar to what pyle puts out.

I'd say it's probably the same factory, but they are different, while pyle has some models that have HDMI and a bunch of speaker setup options, I think that Technical pro has better Quality control. And I picked the 3 best reviewed models. I picked up the RX55.

u/zarderxio · 1 pointr/raspberry_pi

I am using this exact same screen but was lucky enough to get access to a mill and machined a aluminum enclosure to do exactly what you have here. My suggestion is grab a small board amplifier from amazon and some mini magnetic speakers.

I usually buy this one:
https://www.amazon.com/DROK-090155-Dual-channel-Amplifiers-Potentiometer/dp/B01ER1X450/ref=sr_1_12?ie=UTF8&qid=1479833185&sr=8-12&keywords=board+amplifier

And small speakers:
https://www.amazon.com/Internal-Magnetic-Player-Audio-Speaker/dp/B00O9YQTZ8/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1479833247&sr=8-1&keywords=small+magnetic+speaker

EDIT: As someone mentioned below, pickup a small USB audio card for $5 on amazon as well. It will sound so much better.

u/doctechnical · 2 pointsr/hardware
  1. Depends on just how you want to store the movies: compressed (which will lower the playback quality but take up less space) or uncompressed (which preserves playback quality but takes up much more space). Roughly 4gB/movie uncompressed, 650mB compressed.
  2. Have you considered something like this? Holds 400 discs, play whatever movie you want at the press of a button. It'll even play two-sided discs.
u/thisisradioclash · 1 pointr/doctorwho

Yes. Or just a PAL one if you can find it, but a lot of those are likely to be 220v instead of 110, and thus won't work here. Well, that and you'd need a PAL tv too, so never mind. Just get the dual system player. (sorry, pain meds lol)

Amazon has some good dual system, dual voltage ones. Here's an example: http://www.amazon.com/Toshiba-SD2010KA-Hi-Resolution-Progressive-Worldwide/dp/B0045PKK60/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1321931084&sr=8-2

Not bad for $55, if you have the money. Alternatively, if you have any military affiliation, or friends in the military, the PX/BX on bases usually carry dual system players.

Just be careful if you purchase one that it specifies it will work with an NTSC tv...

u/mrscience · 2 pointsr/AskReddit

The one I'm returning today is this one. It's the top listing on Amazon when you search for "DVD Player":
http://www.amazon.com/Sony-DVP-SR200P-DVD-Player-Black/dp/B001IBHUU8/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1302532425&sr=8-1

Granted, it's cheap, but it does get decent reviews. Note however the scattered 1-star reviewers talking about it breaking instantly...

I'll check VideoHelp though, thanks for the suggestion!

u/activ8xp · 1 pointr/Piracy


Imagine movies that fit on a CD !! That's right, no overburning needed.
However at that time we watched them on glass tube tvs (the horror).
I remember buying an APEX cheap ass brand that was able to play VCDs out of the box. Awesome.

u/manny15 · 4 pointsr/community

So let me get this straight.
Let's say I want to do what you suggested. I go ahead and buy the box set, which is $82. Let's say I don't own a TV or DVD player (you'd be surprised how many people don't). That's another $24.99 for the DVD player and another $150 for the TV. That's great, but that still doesn't let me watch it on a tablet or phone. For that I would need a computer, but not just any computer, one with a CD-ROM (computers don't have them anymore) or let's just say an external DVD drive, which would be around $25.

OK, now we have our digital copies. The problem is, unless you have a phone with a LOT of space, you can't have all 6 seasons on your phone. You're gonna need to store them somewhere in the cloud, and I won't get into pricing for storage. All of this just so that I can watch it on my phone on the way to work.

Or I could just spend 50 bucks for now.

u/Kmudametal · 4 pointsr/BABYMETAL

I learned early on in my discovery of Japanese music that I would need a region free DVD player. They are not expensive.

https://www.amazon.com/LG-Region-Free-DVD-Player/dp/B071XRGM7S/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1543332826&sr=8-3&keywords=region+free+dvd

u/Indy201 · 3 pointsr/dvdcollection

Personal advice: Check out region free dvd players. Then you can keep all of your dvds and will be able to get new US dvds and play both. Here's a very highly reviewed one for $75 (55.50 pounds). A bit pricey, but probably cheaper than replacing all your dvds.

https://www.amazon.com/Panasonic-S700P-K-Up-Conversion-Playback-slideshow/dp/B00KJ10E60/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1505748700&sr=8-5&keywords=region+free+dvd+player

u/Blovnt · 2 pointsr/fixit

Without actually being there and prodding it myself, it's impossible for me to tell you what needs to be done. I don't know that anyone here will be able to help.

You'll have to manipulate it around and look for any broken/misaligned parts yourself.

If this isn't something you feel comfortable with, you can simply buy a new Sony DVD player for $28 from Amazon.

If any parts are broken, it won't be worth repair.

u/lifelurker · 1 pointr/reddit.com

Why waste your time? I converted hundreds of AVI and MPG videos to VCDs to play in my DVD player back in 2001-2003. Now, you can just buy a DVD player that plays AVI/DivX. MPG, and WMV for $50. This Philips is only $40 now, and you can plug in a 1GB external hard drive into the Philips' USB port and play AVIs right off of it.

u/Jey_Lux · 3 pointsr/pics

I totally thought he would have ordered you a Mickey-Mouse Blu Ray player like this bad boy: http://www.amazon.com/Disney-Classic-Mickey-Mouse-Player/dp/B0001NEAJS only Blu Ray (which apparently don't exist)

u/member68 · 15 pointsr/DataHoarder

Something like this maybe?

u/Drakham · 1 pointr/xboxone

You can get a stand alone Region DVD Player for a few bucks.

Example given (but i dont own it so i dont know how good he is):
http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-DVD-E360K-Region-Player-Karaoke/dp/B008PB8XN2/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1450367955&sr=8-1&keywords=dvd+player+region+free

Edit:
The console is only Region free when it Comes to games (BC) and digital games if you Switch the Region and go to another market. But it is Region locked for movies afaik unless that changed in the last 2 years.

u/rvictim87 · 1 pointr/cordcutters

I bought this one a year or two ago:

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00TAD0IKA/

u/ElBeefcake · 1 pointr/Games

DVD players specifically advertise that they're upscaling.

While Sony specifically advertised "native 1080p".

If you say your game RUNS at 1080p, that means it's supposed to RENDER at 1080p.

u/MeowMixSong · 1 pointr/cordcutters

USA is region 1, while UK is region 2. You'd also need a comparable DVD player. Which LG makes
