Default Upconverting DVD player?

What is the cheaper option to the Oppo? I want to spend around 100 or less for a good upconverting dvd player that can play most files.

What he said. I like my phillips 1080P upconverting player. It's noticeable. Not as best as the Oppo, but very nice.

I know. Why don't you just buy a cheap one for now. Maybe you can find a cheap player on ebay....
