I actually have the international version of the s360, the s365. the only difference is that my can operate on 110v or 220v. This was the first of my 3 Sony components that i've bought in the past year, and it's convince my wife that dvd's are far...

My husband really wanted to get a Dvd player and I was not so sure that I was ready to jump in to the Dvd market. Let me tell you I am so glad that I did. I will never buy a vhs movie again. The quality of Dvd's far out weighs that of vhs.

The DVP-S360 is Sony's bottom-of-the-line single-disc DVD player. You can usually find it on sale for about $250. Compared to other single-disc players with similar features, the S360 is a bit pricey. It's not hard to find players with the same feature...

Pros: high quality, compact, ease of use

I am really pleased with my DVD player. The controls of the remote and the extra features on DVD's were a little confusing at first - but since I have gotten the hang of it I can't imagine going back to my VCR.
When I bought my DVD player the...

Pros: Simplicity, Sony quality, low price
Cons: none so far

There seems to be a desire by manufacturers to take a simple product and pile extra features on top of it to try to outsell Sony on features and/or price. Adding MP3 player capability or CD-RW to a DVD player seem to be examples. What I like about this...

Pros: Remote Control, smoothscan, overall smoothness
Cons: Zoom feature

In my opinon I think the DVD remote can really make the DVD
viewing experience more/less enjoyable. If your fumbling
with the remote to scan backwards because you missed a scene or forward to skip a scene, it can really make the viewing...

Pros: Easy, right price
Cons: none

What can I say it is a sony. It is easy to run, program and does everything it supposed to do. I am not an electronics buff but I am very pleased with my purchase. Heck even my wife knows how to turn it on and use it, and that is saying something.
