Sony and MS are both pushing their current generation stuff, but the family needs a new Blu-Ray player. We got a very nice Samsung BD player as part of a package including a TV in 2011 which Samsung promptly stopped providing firmware updates for. As a result, playing any BD movie published in 2012 or later is a crap-shoot whether it will play successfully or not. Stutters, stoppages, and all-out annoyances abound. The only way around this seems to be to stick with something that gets consistent updates, and a PS3 seems like the best bet for that, not least of which because Blu-Ray is Sony's format.
In any case, what does anybody think the odds are for a Cyber Monday or Black Friday deal for a Slim or Super-Slim?
