General Comments
It's hard to believe that this DVD player is receiving bad reviews! perhaps, it's cuz you need a bit more brains to use it... yes, it will play mp3's (go check the apex website on how to burn them properly, lazy lot!!!)... so far it has played all my AUDIO, MP3, VCD, SVCD, DVD, CDR, CDRW in both NTSC and PAL formats flawlessly! this IS the hacker's choice for DVD players... furthermore, it is firmware upgradeable... and you can make it region-free and macrovision-free... what more could you want for the price!!!
On average, people found this review very helpful
