      functions as expected as a DVD player, great picture. Disappointing that the USB was not included and worse I couldn't use a cheaper model since only Sony's USB works; so an extra $80 for that feature. BDP forgets the wireless WPA key between uses and requires new set-up every time. Can't get caps on screen so have to run downstairs to the router each time. Free trial HULU not worth the price.

      Great price with great streaming options

      By FalconEin

      from Romulus

      Comments about Sony Black Blu-Ray Disc Player:

      Bought this for my mum. It is easy to use and has all the streaming video options you could ever want. It loads up fast and once you complete all the one time setups for the services everything's great. Her Internet router sits under the tv next to this player so lack of wifi is a non issue. Works great with her Sony TV.

        I use DVD player almost every day as I knit for Operation: Quiet Comfort.

        Picture is great. Instructions for remote a bit sketchy; think I've mastered it for what I need now. Surprised I could use DVD remote to also turn on/off TV!

        Just OK

        By Anonymous

        from GA

        Comments about Sony Black Blu-Ray Disc Player:

        The player does work, but setting up streaming was a pain, especially since I had to drive an hour each way to buy a wireless USB because I wasn't told I would need one before purchasing. The wireless USB does not have the best reception as well: the router is in the next room and sometimes it's necessary to use the extension cord. The overall speed of the machine is slow as well. I expected a lot more from a Sony product.

        works ok after installing the adapter

        By grandma

        from nj

        Comments about Sony Black Blu-Ray Disc Player:

        •USB Wi-Fi Ready : Yes (UWA-BR100 adapter not supplied) Wish I had read the specs more thoroughly before purchasing a WI-Fi ready and not WI-Fi already built in to it. I had to purchase the above mentioned adapter and it then let me set it up in a few minutes. I also purchased the one with the wi-fi already built in which was cheaper . By purchasing this one Plus the adapter it cost me $40.00 more than if I had bought the one with the built in wi-fi. Please read all the specs before purchasing. I am not saying anything against the product but it would have been cheaper and easier to set up. They both recognized my network with no problems. I specifically wanted these dvd players to use my netflix account on all my tv's even though some of my tv's are still analog.

        from Missouri

        Comments about Sony Black Blu-Ray Disc Player:

        I am electronics challenged so understanding the instructions was my first hurdle to cross. Understanding all the buttons on the remote is still baffling me. It is a very nice unit and plays the DVD's very well. My teenage grandkids can walk their way through all of this like it's a cakewalk.

          Comments about Sony Black Blu-Ray Disc Player:

          This is a great product, I have got four of this model 3 as gifts for my children and there is not any problems with this unit. If others wanted wireless built in they could simply purchased a product that has it built in and should not make it an issue with this device, I stand behind my words they our my bond, few these day care how they use words. If you want a great Blu-ray player this unit is for you, if you want wireless conectivity I would suggest a model or two higher. Your Friend Matthew
