      I got this player to go in my family room. I got this specific one because it did Netflix and You Tube and it was cheap. But when i got home, hoping to get on Netflix it said I needed a network adapter. Since i already have a network adapter I looked in the manual, and it said I needed a specific one to plug in the back. So I looked up the model number on the Sony website. When I found it I was thinking it would be about $20-$40 when I looked at it it was $80!! After I saw that I was very disappointed. So much for watching Netflix. So, If you want just a BD, DVD, and CD player for less than $100 this one is for you. But if you want one that has it all built in, go for the more expensive one.

      One of the main reasons I purchased this player was to play files stored on external backup media. The files I attempted to play were the very ordinary avi files. According to it's manual, it should have done that. In fact, avi files were shown as playable media. As far as I was concerned, this player useless to me. Upon return of this item, I spoke with a sales assistant about it. He confidentially said that Sony deliberately blocked the playing of these types of files because they have a vested interest in the entertainment industry and quoted piracy as one of their concerns. In any case, the player (manual) should have stated that. Therefore, this player and the information regarding its many functions was deliberately misleading.
      In closing, I purchased a comparable Samsung blu ray player. It played avi files and others seamlessly through its USB port. Sony - shame on you!

      This blu-ray is amazing. My friends have blu-rays for $400-500 but this has as good of picture as any else I've seen. Wouldn't trade it for anything, especially everything priced higher with no additional value!!

        Comments about Sony Black Blu-Ray Disc Player:

        Its been almost a year since I have used the blu-ray player, especially streaming Netflix. Well this september i dumped netflix as they raised their price for providing terrible content. I have switched to blockbuster but SONY does not have Blockbuster on demand (though there are similar apps...but who cares). SONY wake up and give us BLOCKBUSTER on demand!!!!!!!! Until blockbuster comes up as an option...I will not recommend this product.

            • cheap DVD lens won't read all discs

              Comments about Sony Black Blu-Ray Disc Player:

              I purchased this player last December, mainly for Netflix capabilities. When the player was purchased, it was immediately updated with the most recent FW at the time. Netflix worked fine, and we didn't seem to have any issues with any discs. Almost 6 months down the road and 2 firmware updates later, the player refuses to buffer Netflix for longer than a minute, and is now giving us issues with older DVDs. Sony would have you believe it's your ISP, but when all 4 of your computers, your PS3 and iPad play Netflix just fine at HD quality, you know it's not your network/internet. Will be calling support and demanding action. I used to be a very loyal Sony supporter, but I might be looking into other brands from now on.

                I have a few other devices that play Netflix, (XBox, etc.), and they work just fine. However, the sony BD player just pauses every 3-5 minutes and rebuffers. Not watchable.

                    Overall the upscaling of standard DVDs and Blu-ray playback is really nice. The interface is generally good and having a direct ethernet internet connection is great for streaming Amazon/Netflix/Hulu/Qrio and more. Kudos for the connectivity of this player (in and out ports) such as digital optical audio out apart from the usual HDMI connections of course.
