[quote name='tholly']I'm not sure Blu-Ray is the right thing for you. You seem to want the cheapest possible bare bones system, don't care for HDMI, etc.
Blu-Ray is a more high end technology....you do know the discs, for the most part, cost more than a standard DVD?
Also, I would doubt that you would find a low end player that came with cables. They are so cheap, that that shouldn't be an issue anyway. Like others have said, monoprice.com
I know component cables are high def cables, but why bother at all if your not gonna run HDMI. You may as well just get an upconverting DVD player, or something like that.[/QUOTE]
Yes I want the cheapest bare bones blu ray player, that's why I said that....
I NEVER buy dvds anyways.
Neither my Hd monitor or my HDTV have working HDMI inputs. Just want it to work in hd out of the box, don't think that's a crazy requirement.
