Just one more request before I make my final decision about which player to buy... Could owners of the two suggested players, the Panasonic BD65 and the Sony BDP-S370, please post some images of the menu interface? It'll help me make my decision, so I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

Are there any other good players besides the Panasonic BD65 and the Sony BDP-S370? It would be nice if I had a few more choices. I took a look at both players over at Amazon - Panasonic: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0038KN114/ Sony: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0036WS4CA/ - and there seem to be a...

Thanks for the suggestions, you guys. I'm gonna look into those two models to gets some specs. Anyone know if Pioneer Blu-ray players are any good, or if there are any priced in the $100-$125 range? I never had a problem with two different Pioneer DVD players I bought in 2001 - both purchased...

Thanks for the confirmation, Marko. I still find it a bit odd that, just from the perspective of the film's original language, English isn't listed first for both menu language selection and movie audio tracks. At least the English menu language item is near the top and not WAY down the list...

Ok, I really hate posting such a subjective question like this, but I need some feedback on what good $100-$125 (if not cheaper) Blu-ray players are out there, and where the best place is online to buy one (factoring in price, shipping costs, New York State tax, service, return policy, etc.). I...

Just wanted to write in to let everyone know that the Back To The Future U.K. set I ordered on eBay arrived in the mail today. It only cost me $42.26 (with free shipping), which makes it on par, if not cheaper than the US set - depending on where you buy the US set, of course. The seller...

That's definitely giving me something to think about. I might do more Blu-ray importing if I find the U.S. releases not to my liking, or non-existent in some cases :-) Right not the only imported Blu-rays I have are from Canada, which I don't really consider to be imports since it's the same...

Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU for putting my worries to rest. The whole NTSC/PAL nonsense is the whole reason why I don't buy import DVDs, except for a few from NTSC areas like Japan (and the two I have are bonus discs that came with video game soundtrack audio CDs). Region coding isn't much...

I've read online (in many places) that it's region-free, but I can't find anything about whether it's NTSC or PAL. I've read that the UK set has been repurposed for release in Mexico, where NTSC is the video format, so I'm thinking that the UK set might be NTSC. However, PAL is the prevalent...

Great interview... and I hope I win the set.

Hi Guys Thanks for the replies. Walter - I've actually never seen disc binders with removable pages. The few disc binders I have (which I don't use - they're sitting in a box) have the pages permenently inside the binder. I may have to look for the removable kind. Are the special-size...

What's the best way to store a large DVD and Blu-Ray collection in the least amount of space? Keeping everything in their original cases isn't cutting it, especially since most studios don't have a clue about how to conserve space. (Why are studios still releasing DVDs in standard-size cases if...

It's a shame that they canceled the Complete Series set. To be able to get all three seasons worth of episodes for a mere $30 would have been killer.

I'm also glad that they're continuing the series, as now I'll know what to buy my dad for his birthday in July. He has seasons 1 and 2 already. Hopefully Mill Creek will release Season 4 (the last season) before 2009 is done. I just fear that they may put their logo in the video, as they have...

AnthonyC, I appreciate any help you can give with the SNL disc. BobGu, thanks for confirming what I suspected with the Annie Oakley disc. Although I've gotten somewhat familiar with DVD technology from the playing side of things, I'd hardly call myself a techie. I'm still trying to learn how...
