Thanks WB.

I did some reading and research and it turns out that now is not the time to buy any BD players. The main issue is the blu-ray profiles. I'll write something of substance on this in the near future, maybe we can keep it around this forum for future reference.

It turns out that the BD isn't quite finished yet. That's not to knock bd as a format but there is an upcoming BD 1.1 and then 2.0 (which I beleive is what they're calling the BD-Live profile).

It also looks like Samsung is about to release the Ultimate dual format player. And Denon is about to release the ULTIMATE BD player you ever wanted with high end video processing.

If you're interested in the BD format - now is a good time to be patient.
