This has been a problem since cheap players (<$100) became the norm.
Even name brands fail now. I have an original Toshiba 2006 ($500) that
still works after 8 years. I have a Toshiba 2109 ($250) that still
works after 5 years. The last two Toshibas I bought (both about $80 in
2003) both failed after about a year.
The best answer I can give is to not buy a cheap player. The more it
costs, the better it's built. I'll never buy another sub-$100 player
again. Unforunately, there isn't much selection available in the
$150-$300 range for just a general player (most in this range are
either cheap DVD-recorders or multi-disc players that are prone to
mechanical failures).
