My Sony Progressive Scan DVD Player has died after 6(ish) years of dutiful service. It happened last night as I was trying to watch Role Models. It tried and tried and tried to read the disc but it failed. After trying 20 other discs I own with no success, I felt defeated.
Then, being the genius that I am, I decided to let it rest. Surely it would be running in the morning! No, it still didn't work. So then I decided that I would take a look and see if I could figure out what was wrong. So I removed the cover and peered into the depths- or rather shallows- of my DVD player, examining the various electronic parts that comprise its guts. I was about to set to task and really figure out what was wrong when I remembered: I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT HOW DVD PLAYERS WORK or about electronics in general.
So, I sat for a few minutes pondering what to do and I gave up. I put it back together and resigned myself to the fact that my DVD player has reached the end of its life. But now I'm DVD player-less and cannot play movies on my pretty television.
Sad times my friends, sad times.
