New SONY "Blue Ray" DVD player

[bryankendall]

I am going to purchase a new SONY "Blue Ray" DVD player BDPS350

Question: Does this player (and all the rest of the new generation DVD players) play the entire spectrum of disks??

Video: standard movie DVDs and DVD-r DVD+r DVD-rw DVD+rw and the double layer DVD disks
Audio: standard audio CDs and CD-r CD+r CD-rw CD+rw

Wow. It seems that you are right. A new first for Sony - the first company to make a disc player that doesn't support audio CD. I guess that's what $222 and some change gets you these days - movies only.

I've got my trusty pioneer for DVD-A/SACD playback so I'd probably keep my old player if I bought this one anyways for the audio capabilities.

The BDP-S350 supports AVCHD discs encoded with x.v.Color™ (xvYCC) technology, an international standard for wide color space reproduction. The standard expands the current data range of video by about 1.8 times, allowing the players to output more natural and vivid colors similar to what the human eye actually sees in the natural world. The players also feature compatibility with an array of video formats, including BD-R/RE (BDMV and BDAV modes), DVD+R/+RW, DVD-R/-RW, CD, CD-R/RW (CD-DA format), and JPEG on DVD/CD recordable media.
