Does anyone know if there are places in Charlotte that rent DVD units for cars. My car is in shop and family likes to watch movies on long trips...SUV rentals don't have dvd units. thanks
I imagine it would be cheaper and easier just to buy a portable unit, less then $100 usually for a decent one....add another $20 for a carry bag that will support it between the front seats so all can view and you're all set.
Ditto what joanchris2000 said. The only thing I saw was a place to rent one and have it sent to you. It was $150 for 4 days, and you'd probably have shipping to and from on it also.
I would go with this option
I woulnt invest in a dvd player
I notice that some movies are only be released as a Blue Ray disk
I think dvd players are on their way out like vhs im afraid

Its going to be a while before non-high def DVDs are a thing of the past.
I vote for a laptop as well. I seldom go anywhere for more than a day without one of my laptops, because of how useful a tool it is. I have a GPS program on mine that I use if I'm going somewhere I'm not familiar with.
What did people do on long trips before portable movies, video games, etc?
As for DVD going away, I agree that it's going to be a long time before BluRay replaces it, if ever. DVD was so much better than VHS that it made sense to most people to adopt it fairly quickly. BluRay, while better than DVD for several reasons (including audio, which is seldom discussed) is not so obviously an improvement for many people that buying their library again is a necessity.
