I agree with everything you said except that the PS2 was one of the best DVD players around. With the original, i would argue that it was the WORST DVD player around--but also one of the cheapest. We would constantly rent movies only to find that they wouldn't with the PS2 and then have to go back to the video store and get the VHS version. And don't get me started on porn! I eventually bought a real standalone DVD player. I got tired of...being left unsatisfied. The dvd update disc made things a lot better but it was still hit or miss. 

I think it did produce blacker blacks than the Xbox DVD player (based on an article I read back then comparing the two) but the compatibly issues killed it for me.

That is strange, porn movie cds on PS1 run very well. But well, they were codded for PS1.

I actually didn't know the PS1 and other CD based consoles could even run VCDs until about five years ago. In fact I didn't even know what a VCD was. I missed out. ☹️
