So if you don't know what DVD player or recorder to buy then read through our simple DVD guide and then start looking for the best price for your new machine.
DVD Players
DVD players are now really good value for money and can be purchased for as little as £20, most of these makes are usually unknown makes, but all the same they usually do the job quite well.
When purchasing a DVD player it is always worth looking for a player which is region free so that you can play DVDs from other regions of the world on the machine. It's also useful if you purchase a DVD player which can play all the disk types including DVD-R, DVD-RW and DVD+R and DVD+RW, as then the player can play a disk which you may have created on a PC or you can play disks which have been recorded on a DVD recorder.
Some good DVD player manufacturers are Goodmans, Panasonic, Toshiba and Sony.
Some newer models of DVD players now have upscaling technology which can boost the quality of your ordinary DVDs to make them look more like HD DVD quality when playing them back on an HD ready television. This choice of DVD player is a good compromise between an ordinary DVD player and the more expensive HD or BluRay DVD player.

DVD Recorders
Although there are alternatives to DVD recorders such as Hard Drive recorders, DVD recorders are still very useful as they allow you to take the DVD disk and play it in other machines around the house or play them anywhere even on your PC.
Some good DVD player manufacturers are Samsung, Phillips, Panasonic, Toshiba and Sony.
All DVD recorders do the same job, but you may find some with built in freeview tuners, some may even have two built-in freeview tuners so you can watch one channel and record another at the same time. It is also beneficial to purchase a DVD recorder which can record both DVD-RW and DVD+RW formats. DVD+ recordings are deemed to be better quality recordings than DVD-.

Blu-Ray Disc Players
If you want to watch DVDs in High Definition, then you need a Blu-Ray player.
Since HD Players have stopped being made, Blu-Ray players have now tumbled in price. You will need an HD TV in order to see the benefit of a Blu-Ray player, but the good thing is that all your old DVD discs will still play in a Blu-Ray player.
