   The BEST Blu-ray player is the Pioneer Elite BDP-94HD (according to Consumer Reports — this is the US version of the BDP-LX70) — largely because of the high-end video processing built in — but the PS3 at about $400 is a fraction of the $1000 US price, and the choice of many home theatre installers.

   One advantage of the PS3 — ignoring it’s gaming ability — is that it can be updated fvia firmware and has gone from a profile 1.0 to 1.1 player in recent months and is now profile 2.0 (The final step — which adds Internet connectivity).

   Many early adopter consumers — who tend to be technically literate — consider the PS3 the best player.

   The quality of the video image from the PS3 is as good or better than most stand alone players … certainly anything in the price range.

   The only decision is whether you can accept the looks of the PS3 … although some people simply hide it — and remote control it — rather than adding to their other equipment.
