Have you ever had the satisfaction of throwing something away?If it were me, I would take the entire machine to the DVD rental store and say, your disc is in this, consider it returned.
I've thrown away more expensive articles and not looked back. Life moves on.
Kill two birds with one stone.
Follow Ups:
Thanks for the advice, but....I love this player.I'll fix it, if I can get it fixed for $200 or so.
I would like to get the rental DVD out before sending it somewhere.
It is a Netflix DVD, so I'm not going to send the unit to Netflix.
LOL, yes, the netflix folks would certainly be shaking their heads at that one :)Chris got it right with his response below..AND..it is a nice machine..I got a lemon myself and life is pretty short, sometimes chucking something is "extra" satisfaction..
Hope it works out well for you. AW really knows his stuff with those players (amongst other things)
If I worked at the DVD rental place where you threw a broken machine at me and told me to retrieve the disc from inside, I'd throw it right back at you.You are very rude, not only for making such a suggestion, but for the callousness of your response to someone else's understandably upsetting problem.
He's polite in giving his advice to wash one's hands of the unit entirely. I took it as more tongue in cheek than a bona fide suggestion.Some of you guys really starch your underware a bit too stiffly.
Loosen up, have a drink, buy a sense of humor.
Believe me, I am doing him a favor.Not rude, but if you think the truth is rude, then so be it.
The kid at the video store could get it out and have something to tinker with. No more worries about a machine that has caused unknown numbers of people headaches, including yours truly. No more shipping costs and nickle and dime nuts and bolts worries.
Everyone would be getting a "favor"
Sorry you don't see it as such, I certainly do.
I hope and wish the monitor would get rid of so many trolls.What a waste.
Listen to audioeydoc; ignore ontrack2. The 9000ES is worth a Sony repair trip.
I've got the 9000es and it's still working wonderfully after 6 years now. Knock wood! :)
