    trying to decide between these two sets. Is the GT50 worth the extra $600. Also, I've never seen the GT50. Just going by reviews I've read. Any thoughts about buying from amazon? I'm a little nervous about making this big of a purchase from an online store.

    problem with samsung BD-P1500

    I rented Doomsday (BD) recently and it has the bonusview feature on it. The problem is, I followed the directions in the owners manual to turn bonusview off but when I do, the bonusview icon stays on the screen. It's really getting on my nerves. Has anyone else had this problem?

    BD titles that output 1080i/720p w/component video

    It's my understanding that not all BD can be viewed in HD using component video. If this is true, how can I find out (other than buying them) which titles will? Thanks
