"How will the lower tiered BDP, not supporting DD, DDP, same for DTS's, treat audio/digital playback from a standard DVD?"
That's not correct. It is mandatory that all Blu-ray players support the lossy audio formats (DTS 5.1 and Dolby Digital 5.1) for DVD and Blu-ray. The Panasonic BDP-35, while only 2-channel via analog, will decode the advanced audio codecs (DTS-HD MA and Dolby TrueHD) to output as multi-channel PCM or even bitstream them to a capable surround receiver via HDMI.
Dolby Digital Plus is a dead format. It died with HD DVD, the format it was pretty much intended for since HD DVD had limitations on bandwidth/transfer rates.
The oppo is the player to get if you have a large collection of DVDs and want the best player-based deinterlacing of those discs. If you can get it, why compromise?

Well that solves that.
Thanks, this was the quickest research/decision due to the help of you guys.
Thanks again.

Has very nice upconverting of DVD's, beautiful Blu-Ray pic (but it's slow to load). And it has 7.1 analog outs with adustable crossover for bass management, delay and level settings for each speaker. The analog sound quality is excellent. This machine is now selling for just over $200.
Is it new? No review on cnet.
