I'm finished with Blu-Ray & Sony!

Until earlier tonight, I had a Sony Blu Ray BDP-S300. After viewing a standard disk, it locked up to the point where I could not even eject the disk. Therefore, for me, the format has failed! Thursday is trash day and it along with 12 Blu-Ray disks are out with the trash! Do not count on me as an HD DVD convert either. As far as I am concerned, both formats are a reject and will just have to suffer with conventional DVD!

DONE WITH SONY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You may want to try that player!

You could've recovered a couple of hundred bucks for the lot by "recycling" your player and the disks, or even just hauled it down to the thrift store, and that would have really made someone's day, but it sounds as if it's just so much toxic landfill now. What will you do when you encounter a DVD which also completely locks up your player?

  How are you outputting the audio for BD using the PS3? What equipment are you using and which audio tracks on the discs are you listening to? TIA!

So you had a defective player. Return it and try again. - oscar 05:19:18 08/30/07 (0)
I'd have more sympathy if this was the 2nd, 3rd, or whatever player you had tried.

  The Blu-Ray disks went through the grinder......
  
  The money I spent on the Sony machine and Blu-Ray disks was pretty minor. Therefore, it's all trash!

    The price which is rather low at this juncture will be subject to the format war and even go lower for the player and software. One doesn't even have to buy the software, they can rent the discs!
    
    The improvement in picture and sound quality over SD Dvd is notable but I do understand the player has to work. Try another player!
