I purchase this unit on 10\/23\/04 and it have be in the shop 3 time for the same reason , freezing up while watch dvd 's , read error when try to access dvd 's . Samsung of course inform I that they would extend my warranty for the 3 month be the unit be in the shop more then it be in my living room . now it as take a dump again and they will not do anything about it of course . they should rename the company Crapsung .
