Who uses a PS3 for blu-ray?

I got a 46" Samsung 1080p LCD last week so I was considering getting a ps3 for Christmas to play blu-rays and to play some games.

So anyone that uses the ps3 for blu-ray, is it a good player?

I don't personally have one, but my uncle does. Excellent player, IMO. Quality is outstanding.

It's the only 2.0 player on the market ( unless someone has brought out one recently ) all the other players require firmware updates, the ps3 has internal network card so it can update much easier and does it on its own just turn it on and connect.

You might as well buy a PS3 and get a free Blu-Ray player.

Like lilmaniac said it is maybe the only player out that you can upgrade, but I only use mine for games. My Talladega nights and spiderman 3 have never been played.

It's threads like these that make me feel sad that I do not own a PS3 yet. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

There are reasons to argue it, but most consider it the best blu-ray player on the market. It can't bitstream lossless codecs, which is a downside, but as long as you have a processor/receiver you'll be good.

Or maybe you don't care about lossless audio.

I have a Yamaha htr-5660 for my receiver so ill be using optical for my sound. I really have no clue what lossless audio is. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif
