Eugh!
I have had poor customer service from play.

They sent my a 5 dvd box set of a quadrilogy which had 2 disk threes.
Disk one was missing I sent it back with a letter explaining and they just
sent it back with no note and with the same duplicate disk in :(

Sounds good.
Looking at the amazons 2 pages of reviews it does seem to be well liked
however there seems to be a problem with the hdmi socket not being
very well made. Did you notice anything with that socket or were you using
the other video outputs instead?
