Zyxel DMA-2500
Media Player based around the old Sigma 8635 chipset. The Zyxel suffers from the usual limitations of the 8635, including HDMI 1.1, and poor performance.

It is the only player we've seen to claim to be able to play DRM audio files. Only time will tell whether this is true or not, but if it is then it is a significant achievement and one that many users will find useful.

Despite the outdated chipset, the Zyxel is still worth a look. It is relatively feature rich with better inbuilt on-demand content provision than many players.
