Buying a Blu-ray player

What is Blu-ray?

Blu-ray technology was developed in the early 2000s as a form of disc storage for audiovisual media. Though streaming has become the means of most entertainment consumption these days, Blu-ray tech still offers some of the highest quality visual media viewing available.

The benefits of having a Blu-ray movie and TV collection include the fact that 4K resolution is more reliable when using Blu-ray disks than when relying on a home internet connection via a streaming media player. Additionally, when you own hard copies of your favorite movies and TV shows, they’re yours forever. They won’t suddenly disappear from your collection the way movies come and go from online streaming channels.

You can use a Blu-ray player as part of a television theater system or a home theater projector system, just connect the devices using an HDMI cable. And conveniently, all Blu-ray players also play DVDs—the older form of disk-based media storage.

Types of Blu-ray DVD players

Blu-ray players can be categorized by the resolution quality they support and whether or not they include additional capabilities, like a streaming connection. For 4K resolution, be sure you purchase a 4K Ultra Blu-ray player. If you want to combine streaming channel access and Blu-ray/DVD playback in one device, you can choose a Blu-ray player with media streaming. There are even 3D Blu-ray Players capable of bringing the fun of 3D entertainment to your home!

Once you’ve picked the best Blu-ray player for your home entertainment system, make sure you enjoy all of its capabilities to the fullest by investing in great visual and sound quality. Surround sound home theater systems can create a cinema-like experience in your living room, especially when paired with a big screen 4K TV or a home projector and screen.

If you need any help when setting up your home entertainment, connecting equipment or mounting a TV or speakers, don’t hesitate to contact Best Buy’s professional home theater installation team.
