Toshiba SD-P1900 9 in. Portable DVD Player

I received the SD-P1900 and it worked for about 1 month. We now continually receive a "No Valid Disc" error. I've owned this unit for about 5 months and Toshiba tells me that I have to return it to them (at my cost) because the service centers no longer want to service small electronics. In addition, it will cost me $59 flat rate to repair it, because it's past the 90 day labor warranty. This experience has made me lose faith in Toshiba and their business practices. From my research - the "no valid disc" error isn't unusual. Where there's an ongoing problem - there should be a recall or free repair - correct!! Companies that know they are manufacturing poor quality give a 90 day labor warranty - Toshiba should consider standing behind their products - they are ruining their good name.
