I think that this will be my next big purchase now that I have a TV capable of displaying a high definition picture. Blu Ray is undoubtedly the next format that we will all have to convert to, although I can see DVD staying around for a long while yet.

I think that getting the Sony Blu Ray player will be a joy to use and obviously, watching films on it will be totally amazing. I am worried that if I get the Sony Blu Ray player that I’ll want a bigger television though. I doubt that it will happen any time soon though. When I move to live to Bolton, I’ll be living in a smallish room and the 22″ television I have now seems to be the ideal size.

The Sony Blu Ray player has a load of exciting features that come with it:

• 7.1 Channel HD audio bit stream out via HDMI
• 24p True Cinema
• BD-Live ready:BRAVIA Sync
• XrossMediaBar

Not only that, but the Sony Blu Ray Player comes with a wealth of connections:

• 1 x audio line-out
• 1 x component video output
• 1 x composite video output
• 1 x SPDIF output
• 1 x S-Video output
• 1 x Ethernet
• 1 x HDMI output

You have to admit that these are pretty darn good. Obviously the Sony Blu Ray player plays Blu Ray discs, but in addition to this it will play CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-R, DVD+RW, DVD-RW, DVD+R, DVD and CD.

Sony seems to be at the forefront of exciting new developments when it comes to things like this and I’m extremely grateful to them. They changed the face of gaming for the better so let us hope that Blu Ray takes off as it should do.
