This is why: <br /> <br />1) The internal LAN connection was very unstable. Most of the time it failed to recognize ANY networks, not even the one from my wireless router in the next room. I spent $110 for someone to help with my router, only to find out it wasn't the problem.The network was recognized everywhere but by the LG player. <br />2) LG support is un-trained, condescending and does not care if your problem is solved. I spent more than an hour on the phone with 2 different people, the first of which I hung up on because his English was so bad. Their only solution was to repeatedly reset the player. <br /> <br />I was talked into this by the salesperson, who said it had more features for the same price as the Panasonic I originally intended to buy. My research had shown Panasonic got much better reviews than LG. Next time, I will not be talked into something inferior. <br /> <br />The Panasonic I got to replace it has worked like a charm. Within 5 minutes of opening the box, I had a stable connection to my network and was downloading from Netflix & YouTube. It has all the features I need, and more! While both players had beautiful pictures, LG is NOT worth the hassle. Rating: 2 / 5 I recently purchased the LG BD570 from Best Buy. 4 days later I took it back and got the Panasonic DMP-BD85.
