The box says "requires broadband connection, fees may apply, requires external storage"
what fees would apply? are they just talking bout the fees i pay for comcast?
what is the external storage, and why would i need that?
and can someone explain wat BDLive is?
wat kind of external storage.....
Answer
Broadband connection is required because the Blu-ray is a java. It needs to be update, Like a game.
However updating it will need the "external storage" to store the updates.
It has nothing to do with you cable provider.
BD Live is nothing.. Just something cool to browse around. BDLive is like Xbox Live..
A online version for blu ray..

Should I Get A Blu-Ray Player?
Nathaniel
I've been wanting a blu-ray player for awhile but I'm really wanting to get the transformers signature edition (which I'm pretty sure is only blu-ray). Is a blu-ray player really worth it or should I just get the regular collectors edition? Also is the signature edition the same as just haven all 3 transformers speicial edition? Thanks for the help!!
ADD ON: I already have a 360 and A LOT of games (around 20) and I really don't want to get rid of it.

Well DVD's contain 70 year old standard def video so a BluRay player with a BluRay disk is a MAJOR improvement in video quality.
People have predicted that 'streaming' will replace disk-based use in the future so spending a bit more on a BluRay player that includes Netflix, Hulu, . streaming services might be a good investment.

"Anyone who says that PS3 is the best choice for a blu ray player is an idiot."
Lance - with respect the PS3 used to be the Gold Standard of BluRay players. There are several reasons for this:
* BluRay disks are really software programs written in BD-Java and processing the video takes some CPU horsepower. With the 3 cell-processors in the PS3 it has a massive engine to use which is why for several years it was one of the best BluRay players available.
* BluRay is backed by Sony and they make it a high-priority to keep the PS3 updated with all the latest firmware to fix problems. They have a major investment in the format so the PS3 firmware fix's and updates are fast and well-tested before they hit the consumer.
(Do not get me wrong - I am not a Sony Fan-Boy and I do not own a PS3. But I do have to respect the hardware.)
We are now in about the 4th generation of chipsets used in BluRay players and for HDMI connections so a $99 name-brand BluRay player can now rival the image quality of the PS3. You no longer have to spend $299 (or $499 for the Oppo player) to get a great HD image from this format.
Hope this helps.
