I just upgraded from PowerDVD 4 to PowerDVD 5, and I'm very satisfied so far. Good audio, and I can't complain about the picture either. Only negative side with PowerDVD is that it doesn't suport the Parhelia in Hardware Video Acceleration

I was just using PowerDVD5, and it locked up hard on the first DVD I was using it on. I had to kill it in Task Manager.

How about they both suck, just in different ways? I was watching one of my Futurama DVD's (Volume 2, Disk 2, Episode 11) and I discovered that WinDVD 5 Plat skips the sound every time on this one part when Bender tells Hermes to "Do a flip!" while PowerDVD 5 plays it perfectly. Here's two small .mp3's demonstrating the difference: PowerDVD 5 , WinDVD 5 Plat

Well, PowerDVD 4 is really the best choice, except for two things:
1. It's a couple years old now, and Cyberlink has demonstrated a complete and utter inability to patch new OS integration features onto old products.
2. Its video is inferior to WinDVD in every way.
For me, for the movies I watch, WinDVD was a no-brainer. It's smaller, lighter, faster, less bloated, and has no corruption with SVCD's.
