I currently own a Pioneer DVD player DV-37 although it does not have the best picture, nor sound I don't feel disappointed I got it. The main reason, while helping my sis shop for a multi region player, I discovered that multi region players by Sony (DVP-S7700 ), Panasonic, Toshiba, and CAL would not play RCE disks such as "The Patriot". What use will you have for your expensive DVD player if you would not be able to play the new RCE discs. The high end audio dealer in Manila even discontinued carrying Sony, CAL, Toshiba, and Panasonic for fears of complaints from their valued clients so they simply carry Pioneer, although the quality is not the best. One time or another you would be tempted to purchase DVDs abroad and be disappointed if you wont be able to play it.
