Blu Ray Player / Consumer Reports Dec. 2009?

TripleB · 12-05-2009, 05:45 PM

Does anyone happen to have the December 2009 issue of Consumer Reports handy?

I'm looking for a Blu Ray player and saw that they reviewed them in that issue. Wondering if anyone could give me the short version of what they recommended?

Thanks.

FYI: Right now I'm looking at the Phillips BDP5012/F ($100) or the JVC XVBP10 ($110) because of the price. Currently don't own any Blu-Ray disc but have been looking for a Upconversion DVD player and the one I'm wanting (Sony 700) keeps going for more money than I'm willing to put into it ($60) on h****. If I'm going to spend $60 I might as well spend $40 more and get an excellent Blu-Ray player with my Upconverting DVD player. I guess my most important area of concern is making sure the player will upconvert the hundreds of DVDs I have up to HD 720p (both of my current tvs are 720p plasmas) quality.
