Have you seen the teardown? There is a LOT of heat sink in the case. That's part of the reason for the 1 yr warranty (vs 90 days for the Roku). |

There was a recent firmware update that was supposed to have fixed it.
Anyway it was just an example. She originally talked about streaming devices and I was just giving some examples of stuff out there such as Roku. My Panasonic bluray players work great with Amazon so between that and Roku I haven't had to look much farther at this time. |

LOL No they DONT they Do have a pretty Amazon Pic on the boxes but Don't stream Amazon. I purchased 1 for my son last month ALL he wanted for his Bday got it home no streaming back it went we been thru 4 in the past 5 weeks! Now Amazon comes out with this! Explains WHY they Blocked streaming on the Blue-Rays! They want to force people who got their movies to buy their players! GGRRRR
Have fun folks when your gizmos for streaming breaks! Cause that's what happened to my sons Blu-Ray player! |

I think you may be doing something wrong.

my Roku has been one of the most reliable devices I've ever owned. There's not much to it, after all. My guess is the warranty is more of a business decision than a reflection of reliability. If anything, the more complicated Fire TV probably needs a better warranty, since there is a bit more that can potentially go wrong, though still not much.

I don't think this has anything to do with the Amazon announcement. I bought my SMP-N200s because they did Netflix plus Amazon. I have Rokus because they do Netflix plus Amazon. I just bought the Amazon Fire TV because it does Netflix plus Amazon. None of my BD players have done Amazon.
If you are looking for a BD player that streams Amazon Instant, Amazon has a list of them. It's not short and includes four 2014 models and eleven 2013 models... http://www.amazon.com/gp/video/ontv/...atible#Blu-ray Player Manufacturer and Model Year LG BD650 2011 LG BD660 3D Blu-ray Player 2011 LG BD670 2011 LG BD690 2011 LG LHB336 3D Blu-ray Home Theater 2011 LG LHB526 3D Blu-ray Player 2011 LG LHB536 3D Blu-ray Home Theater 2011 LG LHB976 3D Blu-ray Home Theater with Wireless Rear Speakers 2011 LG LHB996 3D Blu-ray Home Theater with 3D Sound 2011 LG ST600 Smart TV Upgrader 2011 BBT01 2013 BDT500 2013 DMP-BDT230 2013 DMP-BDT330 2013 Panasonic BDT215 2012 Panasonic BTT190 2012 Panasonic BTT195 2012 Panasonic BTT490 2012 Panasonic DMP-BBT01 2012 Panasonic DMP-BDT220 2012 Panasonic DMP-BDT320 2012 Panasonic DMP-BDT500 2012 Panasonic DMP-BDT110 2011 Panasonic DMP-BDT210 2011 Panasonic DMP-BDT310 2011 Panasonic SC-BTT268 2011 Panasonic SC-BTT270 2011 Panasonic SC-BTT273 2011 Panasonic SC-BTT370 2011 Panasonic SC-BTT770 2011 Panasonic DMP-B500PP Blu-ray Disc Player 2010 Panasonic DMP-BD65 Blu-ray Disc Player 2010 Panasonic DMP-BD85 Blu-ray Disc Player 2010 Panasonic SC-BT230 Blu-ray Disc Player 2010 Panasonic SC-BT330 Blu-ray Disc Player 2010 Panasonic SC-BT730 Blu-ray Disc Player 2010 Panasonic SC-HTB1 Blu-ray Disc Player 2010 Panasonic DMP-BD15 9-Inch Portable 1080p Blu-ray Player 2009 Panasonic DMP-BD60 1080p Blu-ray Disc Player, Black 2009 Panasonic DMP-BD70V 1080p Blu-Ray Disc / VHS Combo Player 2009 Panasonic DMP-BD80 1080p 7.1 Channel Blu-ray Disc Player 2009 Panasonic SC-BT200 1000W 7.1 Channel Blu-ray Disc Home Theater Sound System 2009 Panasonic SC-BT300 1250W 7.1 Channel Blu-ray Disc Home Theater Sound System 2009 Samsung BD-F5900 2013 Samsung BD-F7500 2013 Sony BDPS1200 2014 Sony BDPS3200 2014 Sony BDPS5200 2014 Sony BDPS6200 2014 BDP-BX110 2013 BDP-BX510 2013 BDP-S1100 2013 BDP-S3100 2013 BDP-S5100 2013 BDP-BX18 2012 BDP-BX39 2012 BDP-S185 2012 Sony BDP-BX59 2012 Sony BDP-S390 2012 Sony BDP-S590 2012 Sony BDP-S790 2012 Sony BDV-E385 2012 Sony BDV-E390 2012 Sony BDV-N790W 2012 Sony BDV-T39 2012 Sony BDV-T59 2012 Sony BDP-BX38 2011 Sony BDP-BX58 2011 Sony BDP-S280 2011 Sony BDP-S380 2011 Sony BDP-S480 2011 Sony BDP-S580 2011 Sony BDP-S780 2011 Sony BDV-E280 2011 Sony BDV-E580 2011 Sony BDV-E780 2011 BDP-S270 2010 Sony BDP-BX37 2010 Sony BDP-BX57 2010 Sony BDP-S1700ES 2010 Sony BDP-S370 2010 Sony BDP-S470 2010 Sony BDP-S570 2010 Sony BDP-S770 2010 Sony BDV-E370 2010 Sony BDV-E570 2010 Sony BDV-E770W 2010 Sony BDV-F7 2010 Sony BDV-HZ970W 2010 Sony BDV-T57 2010 Sony BDP-N460 Blu-ray Disc Player (Black) 2009 VIZIO VBR135 2012 VIZIO VBR140 2012 VIZIO VBR337 2012 VIZIO VBR122 2011 VIZIO VBR133 2011 |

By Best Buy Customer Care on behalf of Sony, 03/06/2014 Amazon Instant Video is currently unavailable on all 2014 Sony Blu-ray Players (BDP-S1200 BDP-S3200 BDP-S5200 BDP-S6200) due to software modifications that are required between Sony’s device and Amazon’s service.
Sony and Amazon are diligently working together to ensure that the software functions effectively to a high standard. Amazon Instant Video should be available by the end of March 2014 and will automatically be updated on these players connected to the internet. +1point 9out of17found this review helpful.
