Sony & Samsung launch new Blu-Ray players
Sony and Samsung, two of the biggest backers of the Blu-ray Disc format during its battle with rival HD DVD, are releasing new Blu-ray Disc products with the anticipation that consumers are finally ready to start upgrading to high-definition video discs. Sony’s new machines, the BDZ-A70 and BDZ-T90, are both Blu-ray Disc recorders that pack a hard-disk drive and dual-tuners for Japan’s digital TV broadcasting system. The former model has a 320G byte hard disk and iLink port for hooking up to a DV camcorder while the latter a 500G byte drive but comes without the camcorder connection. Both cost ¥168,000 (US$1,608) and are available in Japan only.
Samsung’s new player, the BD-P1500, supports “full HD” 1080p playback and accepts not only Blu-ray Disc but also DVD and CDs. In the case of DVDs it offers upconverting to 720p, 1080i and 1080p.But it won’t support BD-Live, the next major addition to the Blu-ray Disc format, out of the box. BD-Live is an interactive system that brings functions like gaming, e-commerce and new content to a Blu-ray Disc player through an Internet connection, due to be available in coming months. The first buyers of the BD-P1500 will have to upgrade their players to support BD-Live through an Internet or USB memory drive. The player will be available worldwide from May and will cost around US$399.

Yay !! , Gotta get one of these now
too expensive.. once you can buy them for 100 euro then i’ll think about it.
if in japan it costs over a 1600 us dollars , how will that be 399$ in may ?
Hmmm…. I wonder when would be the time HD movies would be widely used in our country… Its still too expensive for commoners and the internet speed here is not that great too T_T… Well always hope for the best. ^_^
WHY is this RLSLOG news???? Its the wrong place for it! Why dont you report on missing people and oil prices and war tragedies as well????
yeah, unless i start sharting cash, i think i’ll skip this one. besides, a single blu-ray disc is still way too expensive for my taste.

Streaming HD content is the future…
www.cinemanews.pl - you’re welcome.
too expensive
now what????
as I’ve said earlier, PS3 is the best bang for the buck Blu-ray player
but that’s if you’re into games and Blu-ray…
@9 it wont be for another 5 years. it eventually get there though.
Yeh…no way …..people are fools to spend so much…on total crap. I won’t pay what they want for a movie on regular DVD…what the he** makes them think I am gonna pay that much more for the same crap!
The P1500 is already out… In the UK anyway.
R there any decent blue ray burners out yet
Sony are rip-off monopolising capitalist. Stick it up them and get yourself a Popcorn Hour, these things are awesome and cheap!
Less news, more movies: Doomsday R5 XviD-iAPULA
PS3 FTW.

technews is getting to be annoying, as i said before big brother-high-tech/internet rights news is more interesting and relevant to our audience why are you so stubborn martin ?
it doesnt make sense that a media player should cost more than 10% of ur tv. thats just bullsht.
mr.x for the record
everybody get annoyed because of you
and when you are gone or kicked of because of your ego
nobody is going to mis you
What’s the average age of the staff at rlslog? 12?
@ #5 Whaah!! Its a “movie” player you dumbass!!!!
Mr.X keeps rlslog alive. He is great!
I have given up on all optical media and just keep everything on my PC. Eventually we will just use harddrive devices attached to a TV to watch HD stored movies.
At the moment I have my PC hooked up to my TV via video out cable. If we watch movies at my friends house we use a usb stick and the upscaling on the PS3/Sony Bravia owns.
Come on you cry babies, if you don’t like the news, don’t read it! This is no place for arguments, it’s a place for news, fun and info.
This one is not something you can download or something, but the info is interesting.
And stop hitting on Martin or staff members, they do all the work while you do nothing and just kick them.
Thank you for relaxing a bit…
No no, the Tech News section is out of hand.
A filter would be a nice touch so you can get to choose which categories are shown.
Since I’ve hooked up my old PC as an HTPC streaming video to my TV I’ve hardly used my dvd player (standalone divx player) at all.
It’s so much more convenient to have 2TB of hard disk space available with a remote. Better than the 4gb i was limited by my dvd player, and I guess, better than the blu-ray storage capacity as well.
pfff, haha, who cares. thanks to hd rips, i wont need a bd player for a long time. lol.
No Divx/XviD support?
