Why so many people selling off the Panasonic BD60?

This thread yes, all threads, numerous.

Similarly, also noticed many are not opting for the BD60 as bundle, preferring to take only the TV. Why? No plans to watch BD? Already have a BD player? BD60 is crap?

I am suspecting the same thing, ie. the high price in BD for the lack of interest in the BD-60 bundle offer.

I am hoping its not the player itself (the only major cons i know of is the s-l-o-w loading time and no wifi support).

While that would be good, what I'm hoping for is for BD discs to become much cheaper. biggrin.gif

Yes, that would be the main impetus for BD Players sales in Malaysia actually, rather than the price of the BD player itself.

BD is the mainstream now. those HD stuffs you mentioned, it doesnt have HD audio plus its not legit. so its not a straight comparison.

I think the BD players in Msia are available at a good price nowadays. comparable with the european/north american pricing...with the exchange rate taken into consideration of course.

by the way, probably have noticed that the BD60 is around RM1000-1200 now....that's only RM500 x2-2.4

If I am not wrong, the current RM1K BD60s are not official pricing but lelong street price for those who got them with the S10, right? After that has died down, the BD60 should still be retailing at circa RM1700.

Dunno whether this is appropriate to ask here, but here goes anyway...

Is it OK to play 90% DVDs in a Blu-Ray Player? Would it 'damage' the lens? Or would it be better if I invest in another DVD player?

ya.. same prob with that guy with the pioneer. And also the disc takes a longer time to load vmad.gif

will demand for refund from Amazon on Mon.

Oh by the way, Anrea Bocelli's Live in Tuscany is only PCM 2.1 or 5.1.... no DTHD / DTSHD but still sounds & looks great. I'd say that the only better PQ based on the concerts that I have would be Celine Dion's A new Day. So i'd give it 4.5stars for PQ & AQ

But how can u not appreciate this angel's voice? smile.gif a must buy for me thumbup.gif

hmm.. I wonder the Skynet will have problems with a BD60 ... hmm.gif

Wow, great reviews, now itching to get it, his duets with Sarah Brightman dem cun (BTW, Sarah Brightman concert got BD?). How much for the Bocelli?
