I like how Samsung integrates their components, but the only real integration with my Sammy DVD player is that it will turn the television on when it is turned on. And that can be annoying at times, so it cancels out. The menus are okay, a bit fiddly to use but also a decent interface overall. The important thing is the picture, and this set has the best non-glossy backlit LCD picture I could find. Very balanced colors, good blacks, nice tones, great accuracy.
