My Dilemma: BD VS DVD
My cheap region free DVD player in my bedroom died. Now I have to replace it. The bedroom has only a Sony Wega SD 27" set, while the den has a 46" Sharp Aquos. In the bedroom I've had the Roku box for Netflix streaming and I love it. I've been thinking about getting another for the den, but haven't yet. Right now I'm wondering if I should get the Best Buy Insignia NS-WBRDVD with wireless Netflix Streaming BD player for the bedroom even though I don't have an HD set there yet for $120, or another cheap DVD player ($40 ish) to fill the gap. My mind says BD, but my wallet is saying DVD. If I get the Insignia I can move the Roku to the den. ARGH!!!

I'd go with the obvious Blu choice. Wireless Netflix Streaming + BD Support + DVD Player = futureproof for now.

Just grab the Insignia. It's a decent BD/DVD player and does Netflix.

Do BD look any better than DVD on a non-HD set? |

FYI: I picked up my Insignia NS-WBRDVD yesterday and set it up and within 10 minutes I was connected to the internet and had Netflix streaming like a charm. What a great deal for $120!

[Honestly, it's more of a second BD player for me as I spend half my time at her house and I can't stand her piece of shit free DVD player hooked up to her HDTV.] Second best steal? HDMI cable for $2.96 (after shipping) from Amazon. |
