    No maintenance is required on modern CDP's unless it's having read errors or not playing media.

    Soap and water.

    I'd just blow the dust out with a can of compressed air.

    Yes, many people recommend to pop out the case and use compressed air to blow the dust.

    Eat some mashed potatoes, then lick the lens and laser assembly. Wipe off with the corner of your T-shirt.

    I thought you were supposed to eat peanut butter first.:confused:
    I like speakers that are bigger than a small refrigerator but smaller than a big refrigerator:D

    I've got a Denon DVD-3300 player that is getting VERY PARTICULAR regarding movie DVD's. I think the laser is getting weak with age and it is skipping. So, I'm struggling whether to send it back to Denon for a laser replacement... or, just chuck it and buy something else. New, the Denon DVD-A player sold for an MSRP of $1200. So, its not exactly disposable. Advice?

    Chuck it and buy a used $50 HD-DVD player. You won't miss that Denon if you do.
