Toshiba TV/DVD combo - DVD says incorrect disc?

Does this mean the DVD no longer reads DVDs? What is wrong? Is it worth repairing?

I've bought this combo about a year ago at Best Buy. The picture quality is great, but DVD player stoped reading any DVD disks (must admit that DVD player was in use almost every day for at least 1 hour) while being able to recognize any audio CD. I've checked with a local repair shop, so it would cost $70.00 (parts) + $90.00 (labor) = $160.00 at least (add tax and possible increase in repair cost if some other parts need to be changed). Today the same combo can be bought at the same Best Buy for $180.00. Buy one if you don't plan to use it for a long time.
