For those on a budget, the Colby DVD-224 DVD player retails for a cool $27.99. Clearly, it won't generate the best picture or sound quality, but for the price, it definitely gets the job done. And for non-discriminating movie watchers, particularly kids, it won't make the slightest difference. The DVD player also boasts DVD-R, CD-RW, and MP3 playback.

This Coby DVD player is awesome! Not only does it play videos but it plays CDs and MP3s! It's so easy to use my 3 year old niece has one in her room. It's size is also a great advantage it fits in great where there isn't a lot of space around the TV. The remote is handy too. (via Become.com)
