Blu-Ray Portable DVD Player
May 4th, 2010
The fight for dominance for the high fidelity home entertainment marketplace has finally ended. Blu Ray could be the victor and HD have been relegated for the history books, alongside Betamax and Minidisk players.
EBay has near 3,000 Blu-Ray players listed on its site and Amazon.com has some over 2200 players for sale showing possibly the gap is shrinking between those two industry giants as well.
But when you are an eBay reseller or a dropshipper selling the car DVD player and portable DVD player online you still need one inquiry answered.
Will my customers really be interested inside a Blu Ray portable DVD or car DVD player?
Concern on more portable types of Blu Ray players are decidedly muted largely for several reasons the key ones being:
* The small screen size doesn’t effectively ‘show off’ the higher description
* It’s a lot more than double the cost of ordinary portable DVD players or even home theater * Blu Ray players
* Discs are more expensive
* It consumes more power
Shoppers seeking a portable DVD player really need a “second” entertainment source that they might take with them on holiday.
This will be used by the traveling executive or by kids on a family vacation.
Both biggest concerns of individuals purchasing for such DVD players are cost and the idea to be multifunctional.
Here are some other things that customers would like to see their portable DVD player models have:
Digital TV Compatibility
With the FCC-mandated June 12 deadline for ceasing analog transmission at the US, around the corner a portable DVD player capable of receiving digital signals will be a huge decision tilter. When looking for this though ensure that you are listing players with the correct standard.
DVB players work in most countries but they won’t work inside US and ATSC capable units works with the US, Canada and Mexico but won’t be any good in Europe.
Gaming Capabilities
Can the player be attached to a gaming console? This helps on those long road trips with a couple of kids in the back seat.
USB and card inputs
Are you able to plug the memory card from your camera directly into the portable player?
Card ports able to handling multiple formats will a great help to play those holiday videos and look at the pictures on a bigger screen and are being offered by a number of China manufacturers of the portable DVD player.
Get the function set right on the items that you’re listing online and you will be away laughing.
A good player will make many sales and leave many satisfied customers. But there’s one thing for sure… for now it won’t play Blu Ray DVDs.
