whats the best blu ray player

Sensible money? Panasonic DMP-BD30 or Sony PS3.

Money no object? Pioneer BDP-LX70A or Sony BDP-S1E.

Subject to change as new models emerge...

By PS3, are you referring to this:

Sony BDP-S300B Blu-Ray/DVD Player - available for £222

The Panasonic is going for £299

Nope, Sony PS3 or Playstation 3, as in the games console. A terrific budget Blu-Ray player.

Playstation 3 - it's a fantastic item!

What is the general concensus on the samsung 1400? I'm reading that it will stream DTS-MA / Dolby TrueHD, albeit following a firmware update?

Cheers!

Is it good at upscaling SD dvds?

I don't have any games, and have never seen or used a PS3 player.

My advice would be go and look at both. See if you can see any noticable difference and whether or not your happy with using what is in essence a console to play BD and DVDs.
In my opinion the Panasonic is better, having seen both. I own the BD30 and am very happy with it. That is just my opinion though and others will disagree. If you don't want it for games I would think the choice is obvious, but there probably isn't much in them.
Hope that helps.

It is very good at upscaling DVDs. However, from what I've heard, the Panasonic BD30 just edges it on this and Blu-Ray performance so if you've no interest in games or any of the other things the PS3 does, the Panny is probably a better bet.
