BD Players have ben problematic from day one for so many reasons. It is important for all of us to keep em honest so that we actually have a decent product to choose from in a couple of years when Blu Ray catches up to where Hd-DVD already was.
The main problem is a lack of agreed upon spec so that all of the players dont have similar functionality.
Assuming that Blu ray movies actually move to web enabled content and true interactivity at some point in the future ( I believe this will occur)- then a viable Blu ray player will need to have an ethernet port, picture in a picture capability, and persistent memory capabilities. Maybe Toshiba will teach them how to have all of this in one player for a reasonable price so mass-adoption has a chance.
Most folks dont own an audio system that allows any of the hidef audio formats to make a difference. Obviously on this forum that doesn't apply.
