S-Video is the best option after Component. You can get audio with S-Video by just buying a simple audio cable..one RCA connector on each end.

Looks like your DVD player might be a pre-component video model.

PC World recently ran a good article comparing pricey cables to inexpensive..they come to the conclusion that pricey usually isn't worth it. There are a number of good inexpensive S-Video and component cable suppliers on the net...much less expensive than most of the brick and mortar chain stores..although Radio Shack may offer some reasonable prices?

Edit: This is how they sum it up..

Whether you hook up your TV via digital connections, analog connections, or both, you are unlikely to detect any difference in picture quality between a cable with a moderate price and a luxury brand. The only difference you're likely to notice is how the cable looks behind your TV.
