2D and 3D BD from LG
Remember when a new Blu-ray Disc player was a newsworthy event in and of itself? It’s hard to believe that a mere two years ago, Blu-ray Disc player reviews concerned themselves solely with picture quality, sound quality, and disc loading speed. They had no reason to talk about much else; high definition video, lossless audio and innovative special features were still a novelty, so what more could you ask for? these days consumers are asking for a whole lot more. does the player have Netflix? what about YouTube? can it play Blu-ray 3D? will it work with wireless? does it need a Wi-Fi adapter? any Blu-ray Disc player making its debut these days can expect to be assaulted with these questions and more. Luckily, the BX580 3D Network Blu-ray Disc player with WiFi from LG seems to have all the answers.Sporting LG’s ever-evolving NetCast suite of internet apps, integrated 802.11n wireless capability, DLNA certification for home network media sharing, and Blu-ray 3D support, there’s little the BX580 can’t handle. Factor in the machine’s List Price of less than $300 – with a street price well below that – and it’s clear that LG has assembled a formidable, feature-laden player to mark its entry into the Blu-ray 3D sandbox.

Perhaps it was naive of Josh to assume that his Vizio Blu-Ray player came with free Amazon.com video streaming. It’s listed as a feature of the player, Amazon is one of Vizio’s “Internet apps,” and the Amazon logo is featured on the product box and on Vizio’s site for the product. all that doesn’t mean that Amazon streaming actually works, though.
