Are firmware updates even that much of a problem anymore? Now that the profile 2.0 discs with BD-Live are coming out, aren't pretty much all newer players set to play those discs? (Even if the players, themselves, don't fully utilize the Live features?).

As of a year or so ago (heck, even earlier this year) I would say it was a big problem. And I guess if someone goes out and buys an older player that's been sitting around for a while, then it could also be an issue.

But since the general spec for the discs has essentially been finalized, I don't see this being too much of an issue going forward.
