The future of Blu-ray technology is here with the BDP-S550 and BD-Live. The BDP-S550 comes equipped with a built in Ethernet port and 1GB of memory on board (There is a USB port for additional Memory if needed as well) to allow you to access specially created content on your BD-Live enabled Blu-ray Disc Movie from the comfort of your Home Theater. Whether you are viewing upcoming trailers, playing a game with your friends, or just downloading a new ring-tone to your phone, BD-Live takes the movie experience to a whole new level. You still get the amazing picture performance of Full 1080/24p output and incredible upscaling up to 1080p for your DVD collection via the HDMI connection.

To further the connectivity to your existing system, the BDP-S550 has a full 7.1 analog output for older receivers. Making all these wonderful features easy to access is the new Xross Media Bar¿ menu system, which is an icon based menu system for simple navigation. BRAVIA sync is also included which allows for easy one-button operation when connected via HDMI to other compatible Sony TV and Audio products.

I have had this player for several months now. It has worked with every Blu-Ray disc that I have played in it. It does everything that a person could need. It decodes DTS-HD and Dolby TrueHD in the player and will output it to a receiver over HDMI or 7.1 analog outputs. It will also bitstream the DTS-HD and TrueHD via HDMI if your receiver will decode them. If your receiver is older, it can output Dolby Digital over the optical/coaxial outputs. Has BDLive, but that doesn't interest me. It's nice to have the option though. Definitely worth the price to get the onboard decoding of the HD audio formats.......
I got it for free in a combo deal with my 52" TV right before Christmas. Only used it a couple of times and the quality is the best and ease of use was great too.......
I have owned this blu-ray player for 6 months now and have never had a problem. It has a very neat look, and plays blu-ray as well as DVDs. Some CD formats are not supported, but I don't use CDs that much. Overall its a great product for a very good price.......

I have both the BDP-S350 and BPD-S550. The 550 runs my main TV & audio system, which is why having 7.1 analog channels is important for me. The only other real difference (that can't be updated/upgraded around) I've found between the 2 is that the remote controll on the 550 has a light, and the 350 does not. I've owen both players for about 7 months, and load times have improved with some of the recent updates. I have an 120hz Vizio 1080p TV, and the picture is amazing in high def.......
