I chose the BD on the basis of rating and reviews in the net, I have no comparison with other appliances but I’m happy. Blu-ray playing together and so a plasma Panasonic remote redundant. My impression is that even ordinary DVDs look better than the previous DVD player. FIilmy BD is no longer true revelation (unfortunately still a small selection and high prices). Sound and picture on HDMI so all can hear and see very well. If you want to see and hear in real BD movie quality you must have a HD TV and Cinema, and the signal after HDMI.Za defect must be no menu on the display of the player and turn on the TV up to the plate CD.Za advantage should be considered an SD slot and USB on the front panel and very fast reading of images and even rotate images automatically according to whether they were made in vertical or poziomie.Inne advantages and disadvantages will probably be after prolonged use. I do not regret buying this equipment and I would recommend it to anyone.
