"Pros My Sony BDP-S550 Blu-Ray Disk player from Dell arrived last night, and I had it connected via HDMI to my Sony STR-G720 AV Receiver in less than 5 minutes after taking the player out of the box. My receiver then connects via HDMI to my Sony 52 inch LCD TV. The Sony AV receiver has "active" HDMI ports so it can act on the signals coming in. I then popped in my fist Blu-Ray disk - Miami Vice - and started enj..." Read Full Review »

"I just need to first say this: How is it that BluRay is winning the format war? I understand that they have most of the major Hollywood studios under their belt, but their technology seems so far behind HD-DVD. I proudly express myself as a gadget guru, and have to have all the new technology as it comes out. Because of this, I own an Integra DHS 8.8 HD-DVD player, and this, Sony BDP-S500.

Sony BDP-S500 Blu-ray Disc Player Review
"I've really enjoyed the incredible picture produced by this player both with Blu-ray and DVD media. The player itself is rock solid. Menus and navigation are easy. I have made some button errors on the remote because of the double-ring layout - hitting the outer ring instead of the inner - but this …" Read Full Review »

Sony BDP-S500 Blu-ray Disc Player Review
"Pros
Beautiful picture. This player also upgrades picture quality of regular DVDs much more than I had anticipated. Set up was easy and we have had no problems understanding controls, etc.
Cons
Sony includes only a RCA cable in the box. (this provides the lowest grade of picture.) Think they coul

Sony BDP-S500 Blu-ray Disc Player Review
"This player is terrific, even though some of the advanced features (such as BD LIve) are kind of pointless and shouldn't factor into your decision, the quality of the player is impeccable (as expected from a Sony product). Setup was a breeze with all menus and options being very intuitive and easy t …" Read Full Review »
