The only problem, Sludge is that when you put in those ahem stained DVDs you like so much, chances are stuff leaks into the TV so you're destroying TV and DVD at the same time..
Best to use separates, that way you only need to change the DVD player.
I'm the same as you regarding any Murdoch owned enterprises so there is the DVD option you mention above, but I find that a smart TV (WiFi enabled with Apps built in) and a Netflix account is perfect for me, the Mrs and the kids.
I've also got a BT Sports deal via Plusnet for just £2.50 per mth. The job's a goodun.
Better off getting a smart TV Sludge
I paid about £150 for mine about five years ago, still going strong. If the DVD bit packs in I'd probably not bother replacing it, either way it's a relatively cheap TV and it's only in the bedroom and doesn't get used that often.
All depends on how serious you are about your kit tbh,
I can highly recommend this 32 incher http://cpc.farnell.com/cello/c32227f...iABEgKJ2vD_BwE as it's storming value at £210.
Bought two identical ones 4 years ago and they have worked perfectly. Being manufactured in the UK was the primary reason for doing so. As well as the built-in DVD, the feature I like best is the USB slot to enable playback of anything downloaded from the internet.
They might produce bigger models than what's linked.
It is funny how one can become brainwashed, people go with whatever is the "latest".
Now I have loads of dvds that have been gathering dust for years but actually, though for some reason I cannot abide sitting watching tv for 3plus hours like I used to... but if you want to watch a film, why not dig a dvd out?
I must admit that when VCR came out I thought that would be the end of watching stuff the tv companies put out.
I'm sure there were people thought that watching films at the cinema was doomed too but it looks like cinema is just as polar as ever.
I guess that once the film has started, it doesn't matter whether it's on super 8 or super duper Netflix.

I always advise them to get a separate dvd player, then if the DVD players goes wrong, you still have the TV
cheap enough to buy a small DVD player that will sit behind the TV
