Pretty much all electronics today are crap and don't last. The old saying "they don't make things like they used to" is especially true when it comes to electronics.
It's the sad reality of the greedy world we live in.

IMO won't buy a blu-ray player. Blu-ray is not a final format. I have one player that is no good cus the firmware couldn't be upgraded. I have another that won't connect to my network. But my ps3 has never given me problems. Just buy a ps3.

They cost $35 each unless you want to go for Blu-Ray. I have 2 Sony's. You can clean the disks from the center out to the edge in a straight line with a very soft cloth.

I think he was joking, cus you can walk into wal-mart and get one for 30 bucks.
