Re: F...Blu Ray

Don't buy Samsung blu-ray players, they are a flimsy and unreliable. If you're getting a blu-ray I would suggest you either get yourself a PS3 or this bad-ass Panasonic player.

My brother has the Panasonic, and yeah, it doesn't have the ability to stream content from your computer. It does netflix, pandora, twitter, etc.

If you are going to stick with the Samsung you should definitely get the warranty from BestBuy.

ok thanks,its too late for the best buy warranty,I'll check out Sqaure Trade warranties,theres are usually cheaper anyway.
But 2 different best buys I went to 2 different salesman said they had the samsung and loved it,so hopefully I'll have good luck with it.

so does the PS3 do everything you "need" or want a blu-ray player to do? If you don't have a HD TV, is blu-ray worth anything?

PS3 does everything you need for blu-ray and then some. Without a doubt it is the best blu-ray player on the market. Of course if you just want a blu-ray player and have no use for it as a gaming device the price is a little too high.

Yeah I have PS3 and it rocks as a blu-ray player. I hardly ever game on that machine.
