What's Hot

Great picture quality, DVD up-conversion to 1080p

What's Not

No Ethernet, no built-in high-quality audio decoding

The Final Word

Panasonic's DMP-BD30 entry-level Blu-ray player offers fantastic video quality, but isn't able to decode high-resolution audio without a dedicated AV receiver.
