Hi All,
Had decided on the Lg Bd390 or Sony BDP S760 but as you all probably know, they are not so easy to get hold of, particularly the LG. (and I live in N.Ireland, so some sellers add on quite a lot of p&p!)
SO..... what blu-ray player would you suggest instead? Say, up to £250, though under £200 would be nice.
Or, should I just wait for the next round of blu ray players? (When do the companies bring out their new players?)
Things I think, I think are important....
Picture/sound quality obviously.
Scaling up of DVDs
Quiet operation during quiet-ish bits in the film.
Quickish load times.
WiFi
Being able to fast forward and not just chapter-skip.
In-between factors...
Streaming from laptop vs iplayer/Lovefilm. The iplayer bit is probably more useful as then I don't have to connect up my laptop. Not really a problem at the moment, but more thinking of 'future-proofing' here.
Not so important....
It won't be connected to any external/home cinema speakers. Just my philip's 9604-series tv.
3D. Don't have a 3D tv, and not likely to buy one in a hurry.
Ta for any suggestions.
