Most helpful customer reviews 451 of 459 people found the following review helpful. Another solid, fundamental player from Sony by Gregory M. Stiff Mack I have a Sony BDPS-360 down as our first Blu-ray player, but wanted a player for streaming over (an Xbox 360 taking care of down there) have. I will not have a 3D TV for some time, and have ethernet running to the right place, 470/570 offer me something for this player, so I bought the 370th Blu-Ray are very quick to load. Checked Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl, and the largest delay in getting the movie was the previews to store front. The menu is in seconds, and the film released very soon after. Maybe 30 seconds of inserting the disk until I watched the movie. The remote has an open / close button. It was not a big problem for me with 360, but others complained, so I thought I would call it. Streaming brings some of the installation, with the largest item of note is that you need to register your Blu-ray before activating internetsony.tv streaming functions. I had attacks of trying to create an account directly on the site, but creating an account at Sony Style store and check here works much better. This works similar to the activation of Netflix, which receives a code of symbols and four of the players, log into your account, and now Blu-Ray is activated. So I had to go through the activation Netflix typical code get another player and into my Netflix account. Amazon VOD is linked directly to Sony and was available in the player. The instructions for each of these screens are included in the Blu-Ray, which provides the code and website address, and then the computer and disconnect from there. Netflix only works from your Instant Queue, you have to add movies to the queue on the website (or from the Xbox 360 or another device with a full browser) Amazon VOD seems to have a pretty full browser included. Netflix HD quality was reasonable, but first and foremost about what I'm on the computer or Xbox 360, the player has no influence in any way. This play was my first experience with Amazon VOD, and I must say the sample HD clips (Superman Returns), much higher than I had expected, and actually better than most OnDemand offers I get from my cable company (TWC NC ) was. So Blu-Ray playback, and Internet streaming box is a really good job. I wish Netflix interface was robust as the video game consoles, but the playback and access to Instant Queue works well. (Updates to this paragraph below) The big disappointment and it keeps them there, always 5 star, is that sony style page for the player DLNA lists as a feature. This is the standard to allow devices to the media connected to your computer and transfer video / pictures / music through online services Playon also support this. DLNA is not active on the player. From checking other sites are not yet known whether this will be included in a future firmware update or the location is wrong. About DLNA support is critical to your decision, you may want to wait until there is no response to the image DLNA. Other than that, I am very happy with it as Blu-Ray and Netflix / streamer Amazon VOD. I have not tried a regular DVD, or streaming music services. I will update this review if anything changes, I use my player. March 1, 2010 UPDATE: Sony has updated the product page and change the footnote to support DLNA. Now, due in a firmware update July 2010. This is good news, and when the boats firmware should I try to remember to report how well it works. If it works well to review, probably bump to 5 stars, because this is a very thorough, fast, stable Blu-ray for less than $ 200, especially if, like me, wireless and 3D are not only important
