lol....the only reason I even heard of it was because my mom had one for a while too. 

ice grillin you

isnt a decent blu ray player pretty expensive

also if it matters i will never buy a blu ray disc so would it still be worth getting one just for netflix

this roku thing sounds like the way to go...you can get one for as cheap as 59.99

one thing im not exactly clear on tho....is roku supposed to replace your tv servide provider....i read some reviews of it and people keep saying they replaced their cable tv with it....or do/can you just hook it up and use for netflix while i watch tv via FIOS as normal

i can take a phrase thats rarely heard...flip it....now its a daily word

igy gettin it done like warrick

im the board pharmacist....always one step above yous

3 years ago yes, Blu Ray Players were expensive.  Now they're like 75 bucks for entry level, 125 for a good one.  And why would the price matter, you're a baller?

You can get a sweet Panasonic or Sony Blu-Ray player for $100-200. I never buy Blu-Ray DVDs, but I rent them. If you upgrade later to a nice surround sound system (7.1), it's farging jaw dropping goodness. People jump on the Blu-Ray because of the HD quality, but that won't really wow you if you have a nice panel and HD television, but the sound if you equip it properly with a nice sound system will blow your mind.

IGY....buy a blu ray player.  Then buy The Wire box set. Then give me your Eagles tix because you'll never leave the house.

i appreciate the love for home theaters and blu rays and the like but that stuff just doesnt do anything for me....i dont need anything more than regular hd television....i just would like to get netflix streamed to it...and really i only wanna do that because they changed their service a couple months ago and its not worth getting the mail order service anymore

also if the nba wasnt DOA this year i wouldnt be getting netflix at all but im gonna have a lot more free weeknights this year...in other words im not trying to reinvent my tv wheel...i just wanna stream netflix movies

Netflix's online library is zesty - and getting worse. NFL Films release all kinds of junk in Blu-Ray.....regardless, just get the Blu-Ray player.
