I'm looking for something around $100, used. Got a couple leads locally, the 909 is $75 and the D505 is $100 plus it comes with a few discs (would be great for testing the unit out, I figure.)

Do you happen to know which is the newer model?

I mean, my only other option that I can think of is eBay and I don't want to have to pay $30 for someone to ship me one of these monsters.

(Edit: Oh, and what would I need/want for getting Dolby 5.1 sound out of one of these?)

And, as an update to my original thought in this thread: what if you offered VHS sets (like the 1995 THX box sets) plus DVD backups? Problem is, it'd be quite a time-intensive process, creating a DVD backup of each set.
