    TV Reviews.

    Blu-ray / Wi-Fi features why?

    D.J.KRIME:Cinema Paradiso: As savvy consumers we surely are, we will of course audition both players and make and informed decision Ahh there in lies another dent in the Oppo's armour in that being sold (if ever the site actually goes live!) solely via it's own website, it'snot possible to do...

    Oppo BDP-831?

    well, after all this, and the fact that I appear unable to buy an Oppo anyway, I`ll stick with my PS3( original 60Mb) for SACD, and buy the S-760.
