Introduction

An ongoing complaint has been the high price for a HD DVD player, but few seem to remember that the first DVD player cost upwards of $1000 USD dollars, or that it takes a few generations for the price of any electronic device to drop. So we should be patting Toshiba on the back for the rapid release of new models featuring prices well under $500 USD. Lets’ take their HD-A20 for example. It retails for $399 UDS but can be found for around $310 USD online through various merchants. But what’s important to keep in mind is that the feature of set of this player isn’t being downgraded along with the cost, but instead it comes fully loaded with 1080p resolution.
