Hostel part ii

However, I expect this Sony model will provide equally fine streaming results. Overall, the BDP-N460 is an excellent value for money at the Amazon discounted price point. I originally bought this device primarily for the streaming Netflix feature, which I have used daily to occupy my 2 year old, but I also find myself using the integrated youtube and slacker radio often. Very simple interface to use. I would highly recommend this device to anyone looking to upgrade their DVD player and add some networked streaming services to the experience. Got this player so I could stream Amazon-on-Demand content as well as Netflix. All the additional internet hostel part ii were just the icing on the cake. Works well with my wireless system but will hardwire with ethernet for fast broadband speed. Plays both my BD and DVDs well. Could not have asked for a better product I highly recommend. I ve been using my Sony BDP N460 now for almost a month and I am thrilled with it. For 95 and an additional 95 for a Linksys by Cisco Dual-Band Wireless-N Gaming and Video Adapter through trusty, I have all that I was hoping for in completing my audio video set up. The blu ray capabilities of the N460 work seamlessly with my Sony XBR6 HDTV s on screen media interface making the TV s multi input remote control a joy to use and manage switching between HDMI synched inputs. Are there blu ray players out there like Oppo, and LG that may technically have smidgen better load times and picture quality? I could care less! The subtle differences are insignificant compared to the ease of use, flexibility, and additional broad access to internet media streaming directly to my HDTV through the N4 My unit is located on a totally diffferent level in my home than my router and PC in the basement. From about 80 feet away with walls and stairs in the way I m streaming Netflix, You Tube, Slacker Radio and over 20 other Internet multimedia services directly to my N460 and HDTV hostel part ii a blip! The beauty of the Sony N460 is that unlike other blu ray player with limited Internet streaming capabilities, Sony built the N460 to search for and automatically add new Internet media streaming services as they become available. Try to find that capability in other blu ray players at any price point! If you already own Sony equipment and are in the market for a fairly priced quality blu ray player with all the additional advantages of bringing the best and latest multimedia streaming services to your HDTV and home audio set up, then this is the unit to buy along with the Linksys by Cisco Dual-Band Wireless-N Gaming and Video Adapter. And even if you don t own a Sony HDTV, you won t be disappointed adding all the features of this player to your set up. I was concerned after reading some of the reviews on the Sony BDP-N460 player from people having picture quality problems with Netflix and other internet streaming services. I hooked the player up hardwired to the internet provided from Comcast, through a Docsys 0 compatible cable modem and router. The download speed through these connections is significantly above the 2-3 Mbps minimum specified by Sony. The picture quality has been flawless. Likewise, the picture quality for DVD upconversion and Blu-ray play has been as advertised. Definitely a good product! As the electronic buyer in our householdnot necessarily based on any personal knowledge! I have read many thoughtful and expert opinions on all blu-ray players on the amazon site. I read ALL threads that gave me info on choosing the best player for me.
