Sony's new "Profile 2.0" Blu-ray Disc Players - Blu-ray Forum

JimPullan · 02-21-2008, 08:55 PM

You are both right! In a follow-up conversation with my Sony insider with Blu-ray products development last night, he did confirm these two players will be Profile 2.0 . The post reads exactly as my first post with the exception of adding in the Profile 2.0 BD-Live feature.

Well, so much for all that FUD about player prices going up!

So if I have a Pioneer Elite 94 that does both DTS-HD and Dolby-HD I can get away with the Sony BDP-S350 $ 349.99 and not suffer any loss of features right?

Now that's a good price. Good going Sony

Nice prices... this means that the JVC's and others should debut lower.

...but as with all off-player decoding you lose real-time mixing such as language/commentary/pip.

The main feature should play the same.

Thanks for the information on this. Looking forward in getting one of these players

I might finally buy a stand-alone player when this one comes out.

Those ARE great prices for standalone Sonys!
