Default Hello everyone! New to the forum. =)

I just wanted to share a little about myself.

Right now I do not own my own blu-ray player. my brother has a PS3 and I use it to watch my blu-ray discs. I do want to get my own player of course and HD TV 1080. That is going to have to wait till after Christmas. I have been doing my research and what not about blu-ray. I believe it is here to stay and will take over DVD soon. I still like DVD, I won't lie. A lot of the movies I want on DVD are still on VHS believe it or not lol. So hopefully they will be release on blu-ray

I also would like to know when will desktop computers have a blu-ray RW drive in it, instead of DVD lol. Is there one now?

Umm, I love to sing, write songs. hang out with my friends, go to the movies, I do go to church with friends as well. I used to be active in a youth group but I step out and I switched churches. I do want to start with the youth group my new church has as well soon. Just got some personal issues I want to deal with first. So hopefully next year I can make that happen. I guess anything else, ask. You all seem like a friendly bunch.

I'm pretty sure there are RW BD drives........ I think they are pricey though.

Yes, I saw that as well. They are around 200, they used to be 300 last year. I guess I will just wait because there still isnt a software out like DVD Shrink.

lol thanks! I am getting my first Blu-ray Disc without any DVD's inside it soon! It is on it's way via mail!
12/17 was my birthday and Disney Movie Rewards sent me an email to pick from 5 blu-ray movies and I choose "National Treasure" I only had to pay $2.95 for the shipping!

Any suggestions on a blu-ray player besides a PS3? Which is the best one?

Hi Matt,

First off, a belated Happy Birthday! And secondly congrats on your first BD purchase. Regarding which BD player is the best, right now everyone is pretty much saying the Oppo BDP83.
