New Category for DigitalVersus: Blu-ray Players

We're always keen to add new consumer electronics products to our range of reviews here at DigitalVersus.

Last week, we welcomed our first laptops into our labs, and this week, it's the turn of Blu-ray disc players.

Our first pair of reviews includes one conventional player, the Samsung BD-P1500, which represents something of a coming-of-age for the manufacturer's line of HD video players.

The second machine we tested was a Sony PlayStation 3. 

Arguably one of the driving forces behind the adoption of the Blu-ray standard, the PS3 has a number of other features that make it suitable for use as a multimedia system. 

As ever, we've also got a comprehensive guide to the features you should look out for in our Product Survey: Blu-ray players.
