"BluRay plus large 1080P HDTV equals great cinema."
Pros: Purchased 3 as early Christmas presents for myself and parents. Initial set-up was very easy. I already had an upscale DVD but full 1080P video with digital sound is fantastic. First test was a Disney flix and I was shocked at the color enhancement.
Cons: ROM upgrade was fine for me but would likely be a little techie for the average consumer who simply wanted to upgrade from DVD to BluRay. Fortunately for my parents and in-laws, they have me. Iimage and sound quality are superb.
Summary: The first question I'm always asked is, do you really need a 42" HDTV and BluRay player with Soundbar (and XBOX 360 too) in the Master Bedroom. My answer always, 'no ... but it sure is a lot of fun!' Seriously, I enjoy multi-media and decided that I researched the brand to give me the best cinematic experience. The BluRay was the last piece in the puzzle and I had a lot of fun adding a few titles to my film collection with post Holiday sales. For now I don't have any immediate plans to replace titles (other than musts like Star Wars, LOTR, the Godfather, and Ten Commandments) but will enjoy new titles; especially if the producers continue the trend of including BOTH a DVD and BluRay Disc.
