 Poor reliability, but worse, no way to get warranty service March 8, 2010
D. Fuller
I purchased the N460 in December 2009. Delivery was fast, no complaints there.
In March 2010, the optical disk drive failed. wouldn't see any disk. I went to the Sony web site to get warranty service. After filling in all details, I clicked on the button to confirm everything, and got the following:
Error
Sorry, that page is temporarily unavailable.
Please check back later.
I've been getting the same response for 3 days.
So I tried calling their customer service number. After 2 minutes of wending my way through the voice menus, I got the helpful message, "we are experiencing heavy call volume, please try our website at. . ." and was disconnected.
So either Sony products are failing at such a rate that they can't keep up, or they have completely abandoned any pretense of customer service.
 Does A Great Job For The Price March 8, 2010
Michael Shoemaker (Camano Island, WA United States)
It took only 30 minutes from opening the box to watching a streamed Netflix movie. The set-up process was straight forward although instructions might be challenging for those with limited tech skills. I think Sony needs to do a better job with their instruction manual. I don't know who writes these things but most of them are terrible. I run my Sony Blue-ray Disk Player through a Samsung LCD TV. Streamed video off the net is pretty good although there are occasional hang-ups usually at the exact wrong time. However most of the blame has to go to my internet provider when this happens. For the price picture quality, loading speed, Dvd upscaling are good. So far my Sony BDP-N460 Blue-ray player has worked well.
Install problems March 8, 2010
Colpadrian
The product really is quite good. I had a problem getting Youtube to work. It was flaky (would not load and tried connecting forever).
The problem was with my wireless router. The distance from the router to the wireless bridge was too great for my old G band. I got an N band to increase range and it worked fine. If you think you have this problem take your cable modem and router to your player and hard wire it into a port on the router.
Some observations with youtube: If playing a clip catches up to the incoming stream it hangs forever without re-buffering. It may get confused with out of sequence (or missing) packets and does not seem to know how to recover.
Going to Sony support is a nightmare, figure it out yourself. They only know "the playbook" and can't think out of the box.
If you have DVD's you'll really notice the upscaling. It is not quite HD but very very good.
Netflix is very acceptable also even HD but documentation on how to get it going is confusing.
Good player and good streaming options so far March 7, 2010
J. Morris (Durham, NC USA)
Only had this about a week and I do like the player. Very nice interface that is similar to a PS3 menu--so much better. DVD load times are faster than my old Panasonic, but still not as fast as a PS3. I'm just streaming things from Netflix right now and it seems OK, but I expected better quality video. Not sure where the limitation is on that and still experimenting. Setup was super easy and no problems to complain about right now.
 Works great w Netflix streaming March 6, 2010
Rich A (CA, USA)
This is the 2nd Sony Blu-ray player I have. I upgraded for the internet streaming capability and the system works great thru may cable provider. The DVD upscaling is very good also. I highly recommend this item to others. Installing and linking to Netflix was not an issue.
