I've only had this player for about a week or so, but it has exceeded my expectations. I was a little skeptical to buy it from the SonyStyle website before I could read any user reviews or see the rating on Cnet, let alone find it anywhere else for sale. However, it was worth the risk. Here are a few things that stand out:

1) blu-ray content looks amazing

2) looks good, is easy to use (remote and exterior controls)

3) amazing built-in capabilities: built in Wifi is smooth, Netflix, Pandora, and the amazing Berlin Phil Digital Music Hall

4) Set-up of wifi is very easy...you are guided right through

After one week, I have zero complaints and give it the highest recommendation.

ps--I don't even use the 3D capability and don't care, so I can't comment on that

Buy Sony BDP-S770 Blu-ray Disc Player - Black Now

I have been nothing but impressed with the quality of the BDP-S770. It is a fantastic Blu-ray, Netflix, Amazon, and Qriocity media playing device. It has just about every feature that you could possibly want, with one exception. One of the main reasons I bought this particular player was for its DLNA capabilities. I have a DLNA media server that has around 400 h.264 movies and thousands of AAC songs and I was hoping that the BDP-S770 would be able to play them through DLNA streaming. This is not the case. At first I was just confused, the device showed all my pictures from the media server, but would not show or play any music or movies. After digging though the manual for a little bit I found a few very curious footnotes. The device only supports AAC and H.264 video through a direct connection! It cannot stream these formats from my media server, which is very disappointing.

If you want a top of the line Netflix, Amazon, Hulu, Blu-ray player .... then this is the device for you. Just dont expect it to live up to the hype when it comes to your DLNA media servers. Hopefully they will address this via a firmware update, which if they do, this would turn into a 5 star review.

Read Best Reviews of Sony BDP-S770 Blu-ray Disc Player - Black Here

Just got the newest Sony 3D BluRay player, BDP-S770. Really bought it so I could stream internet content to my HDTV. This new player has very quick startup and video quality of my Bluray disks when played on the S770 are much better than my S350. Internet hookup went well, but have one issue. I can not get Dolby 5.1 sound to stream when streaming HD movies that have Dolby 5.1. The test HD movie clip from Amazon video on demand has great video but the sound is PCM.

I assumed that the player would stream Dolby 5.1 but it does not according to Sony. I get great Dolby 5.1 when playing disks but not when streaming via internet (ony get PCM sound), and I have a very fast Verizon FIOS 35 Mbps connection and I used Ethernet cable from my router to the Blu Ray S770. My S770 is connected to my surround sound amp via a digital cable (I also tried an optic cable with no luck).

I called Sony and they said the S770 was not designed to stream Dolby 5.1 when streaming HD movies. Seems like a dumb design. I am considering returning the player since I bought it to replace my present practise of renting disks at Blockbuster. Without Dolby 5.1 sound, I am missing the surround sound experience unless I use disks.

Want Sony BDP-S770 Blu-ray Disc Player - Black Discount?

I just got and set up my new Sony BDP-S770 and it delivers on all levels. The best feature for me (to my surprise) is that it can output a 1080i picture using component video cables. I have a home theater with a Sharp Z10000u projector (that cost me as much as a small car (No HDMI) which I am not ready to replace. I was only able to get 480p output with my previous Sony dvd/bluray players. The load time is so fast I couldn't believe it. Those of you who had or have an original bluray player know about load time, It loaded Star Trek in 10 sec. The internet setup was so fast and easy and there was an update for the player when I hooked it up. The remote is east to use and the buttons are back lit which is great when watching movies in the dark. Another bonus was that Monster House 3D came free in the box, another surprise because it's not mentioned in the player's description. If your looking for a new bluray player that also does 3d with a great price THIS IS IT!!

This player will handle almost all video file types. Go to Sony and check out the owner's guide for the full list. I tried using Amazon's catalog suggestion feature, but Amazon thought it was too much information. Apparently, they feel that simple minds can only handle simple descriptions.

It's a great player. I get 5-bar signal strength on the wireless connection while my laptop only manages 2-3 bars. Internet setup was very easy. I would have liked to be able to select a config file with the SSID and WEP code from a USB stick, but it wasn't an onerous task to type it in using the onscreen telephone-style keypad.

I'm really happy with the unit. I've watched a couple Blu-Rays and a number of things from NetFlix.
