LG Announces Blu-ray Player with Built-in Netflix Player

LG’s newest Blu-ray player might be cool enough to sign me on to Hi-Def DVD.  That’s right, I’ve resisted.  Not for fear of the format wars, for fear of Blu-ray availability and cost.  Integrated into the LG BD300 Network Blu-ray disc player is a virtual Netflix Player that will allow Netflix customers to stream over 12,000 movies and TV shows to their TV.  I recently reviewed the Netflix Player and thought it was a great device.  LG isn’t my top pick for a Blu-ray player, but if it’s under $500 (probably have to be $300 for me to be game) as LG claims, these things will ship like hotcakes on a cake day.
