    The Good: Recent discounts make it a bargain; Profile 2.0 compatible with a firmware upgrade; onboard decoding for Dolby TrueHD; very good image quality on most Blu-ray discs; Ethernet port for firmware updates.

    The Bad: DVD playback will disappoint videophiles; no analog multichannel outputs; onboard DTS-HD Master Audio decoding.

    The Bottom Line: The Samsung BD-P1500 offers generous Blu-ray functionality at a budget price, thanks to several firmware updates and aggressive retailer discounts.
