I've seen this one come up before, so I think this is the best choice, other than finding one with Netflix, which I think is highly unlikely.
I'll do a bit of searching, but can I use this to stream video from my NAS? Dlna and all?
Edit: CRAP, it can't play any media files, via USB or network. That's a serious bummer 
I wonder if the only other solution is a $300+ Oppo or whatever |
Other choice might be to scour your local Kijiji/Craig's list/Canuck Audio Mart and try to find someone selling an Oppo BDP-93 with the region-free chip mod. This would allow you to have Netflix also.
Lots of folks upgrading to the newer BDP-103, 103Darbee and 105s, so there are a few out there. Depending on the seller, though, it might be difficult to get it under your $300 budget; but I have seen people sell them for just under that - takes some digging and patience.
I was able to find a Seiki BD660 at my local pawn shop for cheap. When this was being sold at Walmart, there were lots of good reviews about its region-free capabilities. I currently have a Sony BDP-5100 as my main player and this Seiki set up as a backup for the few times I play discs which are not Region A or region-free.
Good luck.
