I would caution against getting a TV with a built-in DVD player.  They are generally lower quality screens and lower quality players.  Combining low quality things like these together tends to make them prone to failure, and if one component fails, then you lose both your TV and your DVD player while they are being fixed.  It seems convenient, but at the end of the day, it usually just becomes more of a hassle.

 

Just my opinion, for what it's worth :smileyhappy:

Hi there there sure is a solution for you. Future Shop does carry several Combination TV's. Check out our website under TV & Video. You will find several there in cluding a Sony 40" better yet go in to your local future shop and speak with a Product Expert and see the picture for yourself. That's the best way to judge which TV is right for you.

Future Shop carries a Sony product the EX40B which is a 32" 1080p panel with built in Blu Ray. Obviously a quality product, both the panel and the player, did this product enter into your estimation?

 

Customers with concerns about product issues should invest in PSP. That is why we offer them. Tghe Web ID for this product is 10145717. In my opinion you should check it out. A good product that has worked very well for me.

My words are my own based on my experiences and through research.  There is a reason that TVs with built-in DVD and/or Blu-ray players isn't a more lucrative market.  For the most part, they tend to be lower quality products or products that simply don't last as long as their separate counterparts.  This is a well known with these types of products.  Plus, for all their "convenience" in not taking up as much space, when something inevitably breaks down, you lose both the TV and the blu-ray player while it's being fixed.  That's sometimes even more of an inconvenience.   

 

It's not a dig at Future Shop for carrying such items, and if I offended you because I offered up my opinion, then I apologize, but I won't be changing my mind anytime soon.  I would argue even a TV/blu-ray combo put out by Sony would not last nearly as long as a separate Sony TV and blu-ray player. 

 

That's just my two pence, for what it's worth.
