Toshiba Releases the BDX2000 – Their First Blu-ray Player

Share

tosh

Toshiba has officially accepted defeat. It’s been almost two years since the demise of their HD DVD format, the lone high definition, physical disc medium that was a viable threat to blu-ray. However, they sure took their time to release a blu-ray deck.

Toshiba has finally licked their wounds, and have gone on to release the new BDX2000. It’s the real deal. It has a sleek, modern, svelte design, with premium fit and finish.

In terms of specs, the BDX2000 does everything any modern blu-ray player is capable of. It’s Profile 2.0, so it will support BD Live content. It will bitstream and decode both Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio for maximum fidelity. Video quality is fantastic with a 1080p24 signal. In short, you simply can’t go wrong with this player. Kudos to Toshiba for finally coming around. Life is good in the winners circle, isn’t it Toshiba.

    Is a Blue Ray Vidio Recorder coming soon ? If not why .

    This article explains the situation quite well:
    http://news.cnet.com/crave/?keyword=Blu-ray+rec…

    briefly, “…The reason that consumer Blu-ray recorders don't exist in the U.S. is that they'd be so jammed full of copy-protection schemes (to placate movie studios and TV networks) that they'd be all but unusable for recording TV shows…”

    Our editorial comment is that Blu-ray is a publishing format only. Many HD camcorders and recorders can capture video in the necessary resolution to be equivalent to Blu-ray. There is little rational need for an individual to publish to Blu-ray disc. The HD video can be viewed and exchanged in equivalent or higher than Blu-ray quality through a variety more convenient and less expensive formats.

    So the direct answer to the question is no there is no Blu-ray disc recorders available and it is not likely that there will be.
