Menage a Blu-ray
I refuse to fall into the trap of monovideogamy. My Blu-ray desires are too wild, too untamed, to ever be satisfied by just one player.
Sometimes I might be in the mood for posting social media updates directly from the Sony BDP-S185 about the Blu-ray adventures we've shared together. Other moments might find me aroused by the Samsung BD-E5400, with its DVD upscaling and the ability to stream video straight from my PC. And then there are those times when I yearn to explore my 3D side with the VIZIO VBR-133. Why should I deny myself any of those experiences?
I believe a person and a Blu-ray player should be free at any moment to come together and satisfy our mutual curiosity, unfettered by social conventions, liberated by our desires. And that's exactly what I'm going to do. My choice of Blu-ray player, you say, Woot? My choice is all three. I just really wish I had a girlfriend to watch movies with.
