Any time over a year is a bonus? I don't think so, it depends upon
the brand and how much it is used. My Phillips (Magnavox) player I
bought at Target for $59. saw its video lens die a few months ago when
I must have left it playing for hours without shutting it off before
going out of the house. It would have cost me $39. for a new lens, I
decided to just use it for music cds as long as it will serve that
purpose. My $99. Sony I bought at Wal-Mart works well and I use it with
respect. The Sony was bought before the Phillips, too.
It's interesting to hear if lower brands work okay, though I think a
good name brand makes the difference, anyway. Target would never cover
my damaged lens because it was past warranty anyway.
