Any recommendations? Even just a brand recommendation. Help me narrow things down. I hate having too much selection.

If you don't have an HDTV but figure you will get one soon, just pick anything labelled "progressive scan" that has HDMI and component outputs. You'll find a brand name one at Costco for around $80. It will future-proof your DVD collection. If you pay more than $130 for a DVD player in 2008, you've overpaid, unless you bought an Oppo upconverting player, which you should only do if you have an HDTV to begin with because upconverting means hi-def.
I have had poor luck with Toshiba DVD players, FWIW.
