This is a great Blue-ray player, the sound and video are great and it does play all of our old DVD's as well. The only issue I don't care for is when Blue-ray discs are playing you can't stop the player you must pause it instead, otherwise it will restart the whole video.
Other than that I am very happy with it.

I bought this player last month. It was very easy and straightforward to set up and use.
Excellent picture and features for a reasonable cost.
Very pleased with its performance, including Internet connectivity.

For the price, this player is outstanding. After attaching the unit to our entertainment system, I connected the unit to the internet: firmware update was easy and quick. What else can I say? It works as advertised! Unit looks great, and remote is easy to use. Output via HDMI to our Panasonic plasma is awesome!

Great picture on blue ray and very impressive up convert on regular DVD, the biggest reason I've bought this model is the 7.1 analog out from this player. It's a perfect match for my older but still very good receiver that has an analog input. So it not necessary to buy a new receiver just to play dtsHD surrounds sound from blue ray. It's sure sound much more immersive than before.

I bought this blu ray disc player solely for the reason that it had 7.1 analog inputs. This blu ray player allows those of us who have spent thousands of dollars building a quality home theater to keep our old equipment instead starting all over again in order to enjoy the benefits of blu ray. If you have a reciever with hdmi you don't need this blu ray player... buy the cheaper version without the 7.1 analog outputs.
If you don't like tweaking your equipment and you have lots of cash, buy a new reciever. It took a little extra effort to set up the player to use only the video from the hdmi, and use the sound from the analog outputs. Then you have to adjust all of your speaker and subwoofer levels again. The extra effort is worth it for those of us with a budget.
For under two hundred dollars, this blu ray player does all you need it to do and the picture and sound quality is great. I upgraded the firmware before I ever used it and I have not had a single problem playing any disc. I don't have any comparison to other blu ray players, but I was supprised how well it upscales my old dvd's. It is better than my old harman/kardon dvd 38 at upscaling. I am able to watch standard dvd's on a 108 inch screen and still tolerate the video quality.
I personally don't care about the youtube, bd live, viera cast etc. I only use the player to watch movies. I have fiddled around with it a little, but it wouldn't make or break my decision to buy this unit. My computer is connected through my home theater system and video projector and I don't need most of it anyway, and watching poor quality video from youtube on a large screen is unbearable.
I have read many of ther other reviews and agree with some of the other complaints about the player( display, remote, etc). All of which I consider very minor. If you are extremely picky you will probably never be satisfied. If you want to watch high def movies in 7.1 surround sound without a hdmi equipped reciever, I highly recommend this unit.
