Great blu-ray player for price.
The Lg BD611 blu-ray player is a great low price player with not many extras. Great picture, sound, plays any disc, boots fast, and easy to hook up. The USB hook-up feature is great. I hooked up a terabyte external hard drive and play music and movies from it.It lacks internet access, except to update the firmware.The remote good size but lacks a subtitle button and only hooks up to 7 different TVs. I have a Panasonic not one of the TVs on the remote list.The ...

Am excellent value with just a small glitch
We bought this player to complement our Vizio 42" TV that was already well-equipped with network functions (Netflix, Pandora, Amazon Prime, etc). I had been looking for a player that supported DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance) or CIFS (Common Internet File System) to access media on our home server. As it turns out, DLNA is not ready for prime time (server and client need the ability to negotiate codec availability and transcode when necessary) and CIFS in a Blu-Ray player is a pipe dream. ...

Fantastic no frills Blue-ray / media player
I bought this item from another online vendor but my review is not published for some reasons.In any case, this is an excellent Blu-ray player if you don't need streaming services such as Netflix, Hulu, etc. and WiFi internet access.The player first caught my attention because its USB device supports H.264/MPEG-4, DIVX, AVCHD video formats, WMA, MP3 audio formats, and png, jpeg photo formats (see Owner's Manual for exact details).The player boots up really fas...

Absolute basic bluray player with usb media player
This is an absolute basic bluray player with usb media player.It can play majority of medias commonly downloadable or home-created ones. I haven't popped one in yet that it wasn't able to play. But don't think though that it'll play all as I'm sure it won't.I bought this at local brick and mortar store. Totally happy with it.Leave a comment if you have a question that you think I may be able to answer. I hope this is helpful enough.

Not playing Japanese BDs
It would have been better if the product description mentioned that it's not multi-regional and only plays U.S.-based blue-ray discs. I bought this to play only one Japanese BD but it doesn't play it.Update on 1/25/12:I bought another U.S.-based BD and tried to play it, but it won't. I guess it was the player itself not the region code that was the problem. Now I have two BDs that can't be viewed and one nonfunctional player.

No power
I bought this Blu Ray as a Christmas gift and it was delivered via UPS only in the actual product box, not a brown shipment box. My friend who received the gift went to set-up the Blu Ray and it would not power-on. I assume it was damaged during shipping because they cut corners on packaging. Sent it back, hoping for a replacement to come quickly and crossing my fingers that it works.

Good blu ray player for the price
This is a pretty good no frills blu ray player. I definitely recommend it if you're looking for blu ray playback ONLY. If you're looking for something to stream Netflix, Youtube, Hulu, etc, then you need to keep looking.My only gripe with the player and the main reason I took a star off is because of it's standard dvd playback. Dvd's look nasty on this thing, regardless of the resolution. My 6 year old Sony upconverts better. In the LG's defense, the only blu ray player that com...

No Frills Media Player that plays many formats & searches discs
I wanted a player that was compatible with my large collection of movies and video in different formats for my home "in the sticks". This unit is perfect if you are not interested in connecting to the internet or a personal media server. It is compatible with every format that I have tried (except PAL) and has a easy to use menu system. I can connect my portable USB drive and the menu to search directories is simple and intuitive.It resumes a video in the spot you left it as long as you do...

bad for music CDs
I so wanted to give this player 5 stars. In a world where everyone sells a Swiss-army Blu-Ray play, attempting to fill so many functions apart from playing discs, I wanted to reward LG for making a device that does what a Blu-Ray player should do -- play discs -- cheaply and well. If you also want internet streaming, buy a Roku box. Even buying both, the net purchase will be less than most Blu-Ray players on the market, and each device can focus on what it does, simply and cleanly.

Loud, slow, the opposite of good.
This is my first blu ray player and I will be returning it. It takes FOREVER to load a disc. My old DVD player can do it in 5 seconds, this takes a minute plus, every time. It's also loud, which is completely unacceptable. During quiet scenes you can hear the whirring of the disc. Come on, really? This is 2012! This DVD player is not worth the money. Buyer beware if you care about either one of these. If you don't, than this is the DVD player for you.
