Title: Toshiba SD1700 lifespan shorter than warranty
Review: I got this DVD player for Christmas 2001, it worked great for the first 10 months. It being my first DVD player I had I started with only 3 dvd's. Now after 12 months and 19 dvd's only 6 or 7 will work in the player. All work on my dvd-rom on my computer and all are in excellent condition (no scratches), so the problem is not with the dvd's. When this happens on the dvd's that will not play the system locks up or if you are lucky enough to get it to the menu screen and actually start playing the picture has a great deal of digital distortion, you know the little squares showing up all over the place. Not something I want to see while watching a movie.I have contacted toshiba several times hoping to get some kind of customer satisfaction, 50% of my money back or best case a replacement, but no one will contact me back and I do not do call centers where on-hold h--l runs rampant and nothing ever gets done.
Is the review positive or negative?
