Hi Folks......
I'm soliciting opinions ( based on personal experiences) on good quality Blu-ray players.
Now, first thing I want to stipulate is that I do NOT want a PS3--I've had that recommended to me already by about 4 people, and I refuse to get one of those machines.
Reason being: I do not play console games, so the game system is useless to me.........and my kids prefer to play Xbox360. That and I simply do not want to buy a console platform and start all over with different ( or worse, the same) games. That and I don't want to pay $300 for the dang thing.
I don't care about 3D.
I have a LG 47" LCD HD flatscreen for the tv.
Receiver is a Shaw HD satellite receiver--we do NOT get cable. We get a wi-fi internet from a nearby tower.
I am NOT interested in Netflix, because our current wi-fi router is spotty when it comes to streaming.
I have a budget of about $200, or less ( preferably less) in mind for this.
Has anyone come across a reliable, easy to use, good quality Blu-ray player?
Thank you for any and all input.
