Re: What is the best Blu-ray player available now?


Reading all the reviews and now owning one. I read and can say that the Samsung BDP1400 is one of the best available for the money and that the upconversion is second to none. But I think that any player that has the HQV rayon processor is going to look good.
EDIT: the Samsung is Only Blu-ray Profile 1.0 compliant, so it will not play some bonus features on some new discs in 2008 but that may be upgradeable in a firmware update at some point.
