Most TVs produced in the last few years already come with built-in apps for NetFlix, YouTube and other streaming services. And if your TV doesn’t, there numerous inexpensive set top boxes and dongles available that do support these services (Roku, AppleTV, Chromecast, etc.) So why should this be a deal breaker? The Oppo is an outstanding mult-format disc player. I personally wouldn’t buy a lesser quality unit just to get these streaming services bundled in.
The new OPPO Digital UDP-203 question
Hi. Not sure if anyone already answered this but I read a Nov (inside) review of this new model to be launched in Dec/Jan and it was mentioned that it's not going to include on-line streaming services such as Netflix and YouTube. Can anyone absolutely confirm this? That would be a deal killer for me. What about the coming UDP-205? Will that be launched with these streaming apps?

Well, it's up on the Oppo website as of now!!!! I'm still running an older Oppo BDP93, so it's very nice to see this UHD upgrade for those who have older 93's and 103's for only an extra 50 bucks! I don't use the APP's on my Oppo 93, so, no issue for me there. I certainly look forward to hearing user feedback when folks get them in their hands. A review in Sound & Vision would also be great to see. I looked at the Samsung 4K player shortly after seeing it reviewed in S&V. A 400 buck 4K Blu-Ray player that looked and felt like a 50 disposable Blu-Ray player. The new Oppo sure looks like a winner in my book! Pete |
Just pre-ordered. Full specs are now available and it's primed to be a top performer at this price point. https://www.oppodigital.com/blu-ray-udp-203/blu-ray-udp-203-Features.aspx |
