After constantly downloading firmware every 24 days (search, locate, follow complicated instructions, download, burn image to disk - not easy to do - load in player, wait 30 minutes for it to work, adjust settings... then you can watch your movie. But you won't know that you need to do this until after you get your movie, make popcorn, put the kids to bed, grab a beer... all of a sudden... you've got problems.) OK, aside from that frustration above, expect to experience SLOW power on, SLOW open disc, SLOW load disc. Expect random senseless errors that make it impossible for you to watch that new $30 DVD you just bought. Then call Sony, sit on hold, talk to India, 3 hours later, it's 2 am and you finally learn that you need to send it in for repair... only $115. That's just to look at it. Get the picture? Google this player. Google SONY DVD Blue Ray. You'll see what I mean. It's not a good brand. Look elsewhere, or you'll hear me (and the massive others) saying "I told you so" in your ear.
