LG BP350 Blu Ray Player
The LG BP350 is an affordable Blu-Ray player at less than $100. The good part is that is it Wi-Fi enabled and will allow plenty of streaming options right to any TV. It connects to video streaming programs like Netflix, CinemaNow, VUDU, and YouTube for fast movie access. The Wi-Fi is certified for a,b,g, and n speeds so it will connect to just about any wireless router. The USB port of the front makes it easy to view photos and video from your digital library on the big screen as well. The full HD 1080p play is incredibly sharp and vibrant in color with a Blu-ray disc; even standard DVDs will look better thanks to up-scaling. Best of all, you can connect all your HDMI devices to one remote control, thanks to SimpLink—no more hassle of operating multiple remotes just to set up a movie. Better yet, this Blu-Ray player is now 3D enabled, providing plenty of great features and high-quality performance.
