    Will folks paying $450 for a HD Blu-ray player embrace low-def Netflix video anyway? You probably get a better bang for the buck with a PS3.

    I suspect those buying BR players are early adopter types with cash to burn. If they think they are "future proofing" themselves, then why not have Netflix support for if/when the library improves.

    But yes, the PS3 is the best value Blu-ray / networked player. Now if only the Netflix XBox 360 partnership wasn't exclusive.
