I haven't had anything to play a DVD on for some years (though I think I did once buy an external one I could plug into my computer -- not sure where it is now).
It struck me as odd that a local Walmart was selling DVDs, but they were no longer selling anything to play them on. You can get players--where else?--on Amazon. In the past I've bought DVD players at Walmart.
I can't remember now if it was on Amazon or eBay where I saw devices like I used to have where you could play VHS tapes as well as DVDs.
I have a small flat-screen TV that has a built-in DVD player. I keep forgetting to use it to make sure it still works. I don't particularly like it because you put the DVDs in vertically.
