6 months ago I bought my LG BD 570 player from Sonic after doing some pricing research and product reviews online. I had not originally heard of Sonic Electronix, but after reading a number of reviews about it I decided to give it a try. I was very impressed. Price was outstanding. Shipping was VERY fast. And I have absolutely loved my new LG Blu-ray. I'm happy to come back here for any of my electronic needs now and I have already recommended the site to some friends who were shopping for new blu-ray players.
The LG BD 570 itself is a very solid player. It is now about 6 months old and there may be newer models but I have not had a single playback issue with it. My picture is clean, and the playback is seemless. I have had some issues with some scratched DVD discs from Netflix, however cleaning them off usually fixed the issue. The load time for a new disc is acceptable and the software update feature, while slow to load if the patch is big, has worked each time without a hiccup.
Strongly recommend this player.

I bought this specific model after much research into the Bluray players with built in network access. I specifically wanted to use this in order to stream Netflix to our TV in the living room without running any cables. I was skeptical about using the Wifi to stream movies but after months of use I have never once seen any loss of picture quality and the movies never have to stop to buffer or load the next scenes. I have also used this device with regular DVD movies as well as bluray disks and have had no issues. All in all a great device that fills a specific need very well.

I use it almost every day... log into Netflix or Pandora mainly, connections are good. Easy to use. When I set it up, I did have to change a setting (like the other reviews recommended), otherwise, no complaints.

I would recommend this Blu-Ray player to anyone. The Internet connection has been most enjoyable. The only negative so far has nothing to do with the product. The Netcast sometimes will not open; however that does not happen often. Sometimes just giving it a few minutes and trying again is all that it takes. Overall, no complaints.
