    Default BluRay players

    I just bought my first blu-ray player. I had no idea that almost every one has built in internet for streaming Netflix and Youtube. Weird.

    Anyway, my first Blu-Ray movie purchase was The Last Air Bender

    Unfortunately, my Sharp Aquos TV is only 1080i

    Get the Transformers and Iron Man movies... FKNG awesome on bluray.
    Got the Terminator series on bluray, too, also completely kickass. I don't even buy dvd's anymore, bluray is just plain awesome.
    My opinion, the new movies, that are actually shot with hi-def cameras, are better to buy on bluray. The older ones, well it's hit and miss. Mostly, they are about the same as a dvd played with a good upconverting dvd player.

    Mine has both. Apparently, I have to order a Sony device to have wifi, but I may just try a normal USB wifi drive

    You mean as opposed to the old ones that were shot in 35mm for 4K theaters? Really, for the older ones I think it has more to do with if the originals are still available or not.

    That justifies the price in itself damn near. I didn't know that... you'd think they would cram that detail down your throat in advertising.
