The 520 is not a DVD player. I have had it for years and love it, although, I'm ready for a different more modern device like The Popcorn Hour. When I get a new device, I'll just move the 520 into another room as it still works great for most purposes.

The DSM-320 isn't a DVD player, either; it's a wireless media player just like the 520.
The DSM-520 functions well, but it's quirky. The D-Link media server software is almost unusable; fortunately there are free options like TVersity (which I highly recommend) that do a much better job. In addition, both of my 520s need to be restarted regularly - they become progressively less responsive as time goes on, which is most likely a programming flaw causing available memory to fill up.
All that having been said, for $100 it's a good deal.
