  I use the PS3 to watch Blu-ray discs. Easy to upgrade firmware and will play all Blu-ray discs -unlike Samsung and other players.

      "The NPD Group released results from their "Next Gen Functionality & Usage" report and some of the numbers are surprising.
      
      According to the results, only 40% of PlayStation 3 owners polled were aware the machine had a Blu-ray player and about 50% of that number had popped in a Blu-ray movie during the last 10 times they turned on the machine -- the other half didn't use the feature."

        I actually took the time to answer the questions accurately. I doubt many others did. It was a lengthy survey and had I known at the beginning how long it would take, I would have avoided the thing entirely. I wouldn't put too much stock in its findings.
