Forgive me if I've missed a recent post on this, but I'm looking for 

current information regarding a perennial problem:

Our multi-system vcr just went out, and I'm thinking of replacing it wi
th 
either a Samsung SV-5000W vcr with built-in converter (still available 

from digitalmegastore.com, among others, for $308, though they may no 
longer be making them) or a multi-system vcr together with a separate 
converter (world-import.com, also known as World Gift Center, has a combo
 
package for $429.99).

The separate converter claims to produce better quality video. I've als
o 
noticed a couple of posts from 2004 warning against doing business with 

World Gift Center.

Does anyone have advice about either of these or another solution for 
playing PAL and French SECAM tapes?

Thanks,
