Comments:
As one of the major players in the Blu-ray vs. HD DVD format war, we weren't surprised when Sony announced a price drop for the BDP-S300 to the relatively low list price of $500. Despite the fact that we've been wowed by Blu-ray's image quality, price has

Comments:
Sony's budget blu-ray baby is nothing short of amazing. Sadly, it's also pointless.
Review Verdict: A decent effort at an affordable player, but most people would be better off with a PS3 instead.

The Sony BDP-S300 delivers the kind of picture performance that we've come to expect from an entry-level BD deck
Review Verdict: However, as a straight DVD spinner, the S300 is only average. Frequency response at 5.8MHz is mediocre, and player deinterlacing is poor. It failed both our jaggies test and a horizontal text crawl test

It seems Sony has come up with a winner in the battle to build a less-expensive Blu-ray player. Other than the maddeningly slow menu navigation and one-time near-crash, the BDP-S300 performed beautifully, and it has a nice feature set. Perhaps most import
