Portable dvd player woes?

Question

Aight, so I got a Venturer 8-inch portable DVD player about a year ago. Been great, played great and all, but has recently started making horrible noises and the "play" button works only when it feels like it. I called Venturer earlier and they told me I'd have to send it in along with $20 to fix it.

Because I'm a college student, I have virtually no money or time to send this thing off, and when I do buy something, I want high quality.

Since you can now find DVD players for roughly 50 bucks now, my question is would it be better if I just got it fixed or bought a new one? (if so, would you please reccomend one to me)

Thanks!!

Definitely go for a new one.  Try to get a recognized name brand, Panasonic, Toshiba, etc.
