Make sure you buy a player with a manufacturer's warranty that covers parts, labor, and accessories. Beware of store-based warranties; sellers won't know your product as well as the manufacturer.

Step 3 Compare prices and make your purchase

Now that you know what you want, check online and visit local stores to compare prices. While prices will probably be lowest online, the savings usually even out when you add shipping and handling charges--and many shoppers feel more comfortable with returns and warranty issues when they can walk in the door and complain. Also be aware that many electronics stores will match online prices, so bring a printout of the advertised online price when you talk to a salesperson at a store.

Because you've already checked compatibility, hooking up the player should be a cinch. Plug in your cables, pop in your favorite movie, and get ready to be blown away by the latest wave in home entertainment technology.
