As above, been a long time since I bought one, any recommendations? Don’t want to spend loads as not used a huge amount, under £250 ideally.

Panasonic DP-UB450EB

Thanks, just been looking at various reviews on top 5 etc and this comes out very well in the mid range as long as you don't want to play DVD audio discs (which I don't).Draizetrain said:Panasonic DP-UB450EB0 -

If you have to have one nowadays I think they are all much of a muchness. I'd would just make sure it plays 4K discs.
I have 2 Samsung OLEDs, sound bar and 2 Blu-ray players not that I use the players much these days, (2 rooms 2 setups). Makes everything easy to setup and use. Probably get better versions of all 3 but they do for me. I still like to have the occasional disc especially if its a decent film with good sound but then then I tend to use the setup without the sound bar and use the AV amp setup.0 -

I think physical media still has a place.
We may not want it in ‘our white and grey minimalist lounge diners’ but surely we’re being ripped off?
My DVD and Blu-Ray collection isn’t large but includes BBC Series and Documentaries, Classic Films from a multitude of studios, Disney Animated Films, Old TV Series, Jurassic Park and other Universal Titles and Independent and Foreign Films.
If I were to sign up to every streaming service to encompass all of these (even if they were available), I would be broke.
Or are people just keen to eat what they are fed (like the visual equivalent of Heart FM and Capital)?4 -

Thanks all, I'll plump for the Panasonic I think.
Whilst I long ago got rid of most of my CD collection in favour of streaming, I still have a lot of Vinyl and that's not going anywhere!0 -
To me Blu-ray players are much of a muchness, a cheap one will do the job.
And yes physical media is still worthwhile. Many box sets have loads of extras you won't find on streaming, and streaming services can drop or edit/censor programmes.0
