LG BD100 - LG's Blu-ray player

LG’s BD100 Blu-ray player is a full 1080p model featuring an HDCP-compliant HDMI port, as well as component, composite and coaxial for good measure. Playback compatibility is fairly good and it’ll read Blu-ray discs, DVD+R and DVD-R discs, DVD-RAM, and MP3 and WMA audio CDs.

HD-lovers must also check for the LG 47LB2RF, a 47-inch 1080p HD Ready television that LG considers will grant a 200 per cent clearer picture than you’re inured to. BD100 also supports java content using the BD-J standard.

According to T3 magazine “Judging by similar offerings from Samsung, we’d expect the BD100 to come in below the £1,000 mark, although Blu-Ray players are inherently more expensive than their HD-DVD counterparts, so don’t be too surprised if it’s still a little on the pricey side.”
