Looks like Sony is almost ready to roll out some new Blu-ray changers!

The Sony 200- and 400-disc Blu-Ray changers will likely be hitting markets soon. They were unveiled at CEDIA, but no official date was announced. The Sony BDP-CX960 will hold 200 discs and the BDP-CX7000ES will hold 400. When the players are finally released, they will likely have BD-Live capabilities and possibly hard drives, and will both be HDNA compliant. There is still no official launch date from Sony, but a Swiss retail site has the Sony BDP-CX7000ES listed for the equivalent of $2,250 USD.

Damn wish I had the money to get this 400 disc changer. That would take care of my storage problem. The player will download and show the cover artwork.... sweet.... here is a link to more info on the Sony ES BDP-CX7000ES:

Crutchfield has the Sony ES BDP-CX7000ES listed for $1899.99.... Two of these players would take care of all my storage capacity....

According to the Sonystyle website, both players hold 400 discs. The 7000ES-version costs $1,900, while the 960-version costs $800. Have a look here:

A nice feature of their website is that you can hit the 'compare'-boxes and see which one is best for you, for the price. You'll have to expand the topics a few times, but it is easy to see the differences (grey-line is different, blue-line is identical).

Edit: I recall reading somewhere that you can hook-up 4 of them together on one output. If you have 5 hdmi ports on your A/V-receiver, for example, you could have 5 of those daisy-chains adding up to 20 changers containing 8,000 discs .
