The ladies man trailer

Pros: Fantastic resolution for playing discs. Great upscaling for regular DVDs. Quick and easy home menu to access all capabilties like internet content providers, photos, DVDs. Great performance with Netflix instant streaming. Cons: Not a Windows 7 compatible device?? No shuffle or random play for music files This is a constant frustration with Sony products. It s like Sony engineers have never heard of shuffle play. Regarding Netflix instant streaming. It s a simple set up using your computer and the player. Once set up, it s quick and easy to access your instant play list from the Blu-Ray player. Resolution and streaming quality are entirely dependent on the speed of your internet connection and how the movie was compressed. Some HD titles with adequate internet speed look fantastic. Netflix will test your internet connection speed before every movie is streamed. If the connection happens to be fast at that time, then Netflix will stream at a higher resolution. If your internet connection happens to be slow when Netflix tests it then resolution will be downscaled. Overall, the resolution is not typically HD quality and can even be somewhat worse than standard appearing pixelly, but it s still quite good most of the time and it s certainly worth it to me to have all those Netflix titles so quickly available. Also, Netflix typically makes only older titles available for streaming meaning movies that are, perhaps, 5 years old or older. However, there are some fairly new titles available. That said, I use Netflix for casual viewing of movies that I don t need to be in HD. Movies that I ve perhaps seen before or have less interest in. Then I save those movies that I want that immersive viewing experience for Blu-Ray or even upscaled DVD. All in all, this is a fun, amazing machine that does a lot for the amount of money you pay for it. NETFLIX, AMAZON ON DEMAND, SLACKER RADIO, AND CRACKLE DISAPPEARED AND NEVER CAME BACK. DOWNGRADE TO TURKEY. What a bummer. Sony gives you at least 20 different choices of internet content and they were all working flawlessly when suddenly the icons to access Netflix, Amazon on Demand, Crackle and Slacker Radio literally disappeared from the lineup. And the Sony Support was horrible. I tried online chat support, phone support, email support etc. Sony promised to call me back with an escalated special team of support but never did. Then they never answered emails. I finally took my unit back thinking something must have gone haywire with the internal software. So, I exchanged it for another same brand and model new machine. Guess what? No Netflix, Amazon on Demand, Crackle, or Slacker Radio icons. Huh? All the other internet content including YouTube was represented in the channel lineup and worked flawlessly but not those premium channels. The Netflix support people said that they thought that those premium channels were being routed through Sony servers and the rest of the channels, including YouTube were being accessed directly. So, I took the second machine back and picked up a Samsung BD-P36
