I don't want to stoop to the Blu trolling level of the tool aka BBG here like he or she did on the HDDVD poll yesterday, but I wanted to comment anyway and hopefully you all understand that my comments below aren't intended to offend Blu fans.
For the past year I've said all along that the best Blu player on the market wasn't a stand alone player at all but a gaming system: the PS3. Now to be fair, I don't own a PS3 and have no intentions of getting one because I'm a gamer that's what I would use it for.
Having said that, I actually find it refreshing to see so many others agreeing that the PS3 would be the best option to go Blu, and would most likely be my choice as well if I so choose to. It's going to be Profile 1.1 fairly soon, which would help sway me more.
But now that I'm learning that it doesn't bitstream Dolby TrueHD and DTSHD-MA, however, does lessen the likelihood that I would go for the PS3 afterall. Maybe another firmware update could fix that in the near future? Might just have to wait for a reasonably priced stand alone Profile 1.1 player then.
