buying bluray player

[nature boy]

are they all the same? anything i should look out for?
i figure they're pretty much the same just different load times and functions like dvd players were like. but i thought i'd make sure because you see a lot of big price jumps.

Make sure it has automatic updates for the firmware.

[nature boy]

so wifi connection?

[Duncan]

look for one that plays ps3 games...



oh wait

[nature boy]

haha good one.

i was wondering what the wifi connection was for.

[Duncan]

you can update firmware via wifi or some actually have usb slots for you to update via usb key... either way, you should look for one that is "update-able"

[nature boy]

ok, i'm on it.

[nature boy]

yeah, winnie asked the same thing and i was like, "eeeerrrrrr duuurrrrrrrr.... derp."

[geForce]

The ones with wifi connection are better because it just does it automatically instead of having to download drivers onto a usb stick and then manually updating the player.

Bluray players are kind of like the media players on your computer. The video drivers are constantly updated to improve quality.

BB in the US had one for sale for 39.99.

[geForce]

Is it worth getting trampled for though?

[Wetundies]

no trampling this time, just pepper spray.

[nature boy]

there's one at visions for 69 bucks or something. i think winnie wants to just get that one.
we don't see many under that price.

[geForce]

I'm surprised Patrick and Kitty hasn't bought one...
But then again, I guess Chinese dramas don't come in bluray.
