i would rather get an ps3 which is much cheaper, and you can do more things than just watch movies.

I'm sure this is the bees knees in Blu-Ray players, but the PS3 is just a better bargain overall at half the price or less (I used my Virgin CC to get a PS3 + GTA4 for £270 in-store at Zavvi a few weeks back for example).

ok sarbjeet? but why rate it so cold - lots of people out there dont play games and would like a top of the range Blu Ray disc player. Just trying to find some deals for people but kind of pointless searching if it gets the cold reception as soon as its listed. i agree you might not like so by al means comment but the deal is still a good deal so please dont rate it as cold just because you have a preference for another way of viewing them.
Cheers

the ps3 is no good if you have an av amp, like the onkyo 605 though

mmm. someone's missing the point. Of course there are cheaper brands and models etc but this is a top end of the market model for those people who like quality items that will last and give a good few years service. Oh well. No pleasing some people

The PS3 can output uncompressed audio via HDMI, so what's the problem here? I know the PS3 can't do every format of audio of course, so if you have some insane audio setup you might miss out, but otherwise you'll miss some "Dolby Digital FooBizzleShizzle" LED lighting up on your amp and no audible difference.

The PS3 is currently the audiovideophile player of choice. Quiet. Upgradeable firmware. Works. Also does Rock Band.

I don't agree. I have this combo. Would you care to elaborate? Are you referring to the lack of HD audio as bitstream from the PS3? This would be the only short coming which hopefully will be fixed by a firmware update, and is not the end of the world anyway.

As for this deal, if you want this specific player for some reason, it's a hot deal. Although there are newer players with better specifications out there now in my opinion. But thanks for posting, I am glad I get a chance to checkout bluray deals.

i have a samsung dvd player 1080p7, a budget dvd player which cost about £60, I also have a denon 1940 dvd player which cost about £220, the denon is miles better in picture quality to build quality....what im trying to say is that just because they are both blu ray players doesnt mean they are the same, quality comes at a price
for starters the noise from the ps3 would destroy any quiet moments in an experience (tho its nowhere near as bad as the xbox360)

so you are happy to settle for 2nd best then...just kidding....i would rather let the amp decode dts-hd than the ps3, otherwise its almost pointless buying the amp....for sound if you are using the ps3 for movies anyway...the difference is probably minimal tho

the ps3 dts-hd firmware update is on its way, but i would rather have the ps3 send it uncompressed so the amp you paid alot of money for can do its stuff

as for the deal, id wait till later this year when hopefully bluray 2.0 is out

Top quality HD-DVD players were much cheaper (even before the major studios pulled their backing from the format|).... so how come top quality buy-ray players are so expensive ? do the manufacturers actually not want to them to sell ??? this is way way overpriced.....
