Thanks

Definitely the LG BD590.
Had the Sony and it wasn't worth a crap.
Went with the LG (I have 2 in the house now) and it simply can't be beat.

Why? There's absolutely no reason to have another one unless you're putting it in a different room.

I have a Samsung BD C6500. The Netflix video streaming quality, and blu-ray feedback in general, is the best I've seen. It's quicker than the previous Samsungs, too. I bought mine for about $200-$250.

I've been looking for a stand alone player to go in a 2nd room as well. This one seems to be the best value:

Question: how does the streaming Netflix work? Is it built in software, do you use a disc like the PS3, or do you open some sort of web browser on the player and go to Netflix.com?
Edit: Nevermind, they have it in the reviews:

Once connected to the internet, currently active services include Netflix, Amazon Video on Demand, You Tube, Picasa, local weather, and Bloomberg stock ticker. Navigating via on-screen menus is a breeze with a decent remote (wish it was back-lit). Movies streamed from Netflix worked flawlessly and the picture quality was surprisingly good! More video and music sites are likely to be added as there is a "Coming Soon" area, which is currently blank.

I have that one, it's been rock solid so far. Only 1 disc out of about 50 hasn't played, Bourne Ultimatum. Otherwise I've been pleased with it.

PS3 doesn't use a disk anymore. Its a software that loads on the system now.
