 If the recent Blu-con conference in Los Angeles is any indicator, Blu-ray is officially here to stay. If you haven’t made the jump into the 1080p deliciousness of this high definition movie format, now is the time. With the holiday season rapidly approaching, there will be an astounding number of cheap Blu-ray players targeted at consumers finally ready to start replacing their DVD collections. Top Pick: Sony 120GB Playstaion 3- Full Review -  Samsung BD-P4600 Simply put, the Samsung BD-4600 screams sexiness. When we spotted this player at CES in January, we were enthralled with the design. Being able to feature your Blu-ray player as a work of home theater art underneath your super-slim flat screen TV can only add to your home theater’s appeal. With support for Netflix and Pandora as well as quick loading times, the Samsung player can easily be added to the minimalist’s home theater design. Pioneer BDP-320- Full Review -  The Pioneer BDP-320 is a powerhouse in audio / video quality, giving the intermediate level Oppo some serious competition. It’s also a quite Blu-ay player and runs quite cool. The trade off for the reduced price point is lengthier load times for Blu-ray discs and a lack of wi-fi functionality included in the unit. Still, the Pioneer BDP-320 is an admirable unit for those ready to make the jump into Blu-ray. LG BD390 |
