Looking for basic Blu-ray player that has pre-installed apps (YT and Amazon) - Blu-ray Forum

So I got the Sony BDP-S3700 for cheap for my bedroom and it worked fine for a few months, but now basically every week, it would lose all info and pretty much go back to factory settings, at which point I would have to re-enter my Wifi info and log into YouTube. Apparently I'm not alone, the Sony site has others with the same problem with no solution.

So, I'm looking for another Blu-ray (not Sony) that has streaming options, including YouTube and Amazon that is inexpensive. With the Blu-ray playing part, I don't need anything fancy as this is a secondary player on a small (720p) TV.

What is your budget?

I would say $75 or less. However, looking into it, so long as the player still, well, plays Blu-rays, I may go for a low-end Roku and just use that for YouTube and Amazon Prime streaming.

Both of those apps are available on PS3. You should be able to find a used one within your budget, not t mention it will double as a game player to boot.

Already have a PS4 (which I basically got for free but have only played one game on; not much of a gamer). In any case, seems Sony did some sort of patch, haven't had any problems since.
