Yeah quick question on Blu-ray players ... was wondering which player is better for downloading or streaming movies from Net-Flix and other providers. I was thinking of the Samsung 4600 , PS3 , etc. so all help and info is appreciated . Thanks and Happy Holidays to all ~

    I think they are all about the same. Netflix streams in HD (providing you have enough bandwidth) but they don't yet stream in Blu-Ray. I know a few people happy with the PS3.......myself, I use a Roku player and there are a handful of DVDp's that will stream as well. I'd say look for a Blu-Ray player that rates high and has the features/look you want as the streaming from Netflix is pretty much the same for all units.
