Blu-ray discs have become common day by day when entertainment lovers are rapidly switching to high definition platform. Sony is undoubtedly the king of entertainment when it comes to home multimedia systems. Sony has a range of high quality DVD players as well as Blu-ray players under its belt. Newest addition to its Blu-ray family is Sony BDP-N460.

Sony BDP-N460 uses new steaming technology that is gaining popularity to avoid piracy problems. It offers advanced streaming features over high speed internet connection. This feature is also provided by some other products in form of YouTube streaming and Netflix Instant. Full HD stream in 1080p is great to watch with compatible multimedia system on a high definition screen. Crystal clear clarity of video and audio is promised as Sony introduces 7.1 surround sound support and Dolby True HD and DTS-HD compatibility.

The best part of Sony BDP-N460 is that it has a lot of features that are missing in similar products from other manufacturers. Six-second start up ensures that users won’t have to wait for a long time to wait for streaming and playing their favorite movies. Sony-exclusive features such as x.v.Color output and the all-new Bravia Sync technology are also included in the product. The Sony product has a disc drive which supports MP3, JOEG and AVCHD Playback along with usual DVD, CD Audio and Blu-Ray playback. Lightweight and well-designed exterior will surely impress you when you try it with its 1080p video support.

Sony expects to attract larger audience with a low price tag compared to similar products by other manufacturers. Mere $179 is what Sony is offering BDP-N460 for on Amazon. It is available for less than $200 at other retail stores as well. Such low price tag has ensured that Sony gets enough publicity that it doesn’t need to market the product beyond certain limit. While there are some cons such as no internal storage and absence of Wi-Fi connectivity, its positive side overshadows its cons.
