Does the magnavox produce regular updates for their players.... that would be my big concern with these cheaper players because bluray still has big problems with newer releases not working across all players and I would guess these cheap ones would be the first ones to have issues.
I love good electronics, but I took a leap of faith on the Magnavox last year when Sam's had it as a display unit clearance for $99. I haven't even looked for firmware upgrades as I have never had any issues. We rent about six BD movies a week through Netflix and this has played all of them flawlessly for about nine months!
Walmart is pretty good, I have bought some movies there, most the time I just order them for cheap from 3rd party vendors. My favorite site to buy blue-ray is probably http://blue-ray-deals.com . Saved lots of money there. Dont know how they do it but I love it :)
