Any recommendations for a decent DVD/Blu-ray player? - Lemmy.World

I’ve recently gotten into buying DVDs instead of streaming things, but the problem that I’m having is that the only DVD player I have is my old Xbox 360 which doesn’t support Blu-ray and I don’t know if there are better DVD readers nowadays. Just wondering if there was anything I should specifically look for or avoid when shopping for a new player.

What are your requirements?

  • Multiregional?
  • 4k?

The first one was important to me in the UK as you often have to import discs but, if you are in the US it might not be a big deal. It might be worth having anyway in case you run into thr issue down the line.

I can’t say for 4K, but for standard and 3D bluray, the PS3 is a pretty cracking all-rounder.
You can get a slim easily for under £100 second hand now.

If you hack them, I think they can be made region free, but I’m not 100% sure if that’s just DVD or Blu-ray.
