Like several others, I also dipped my toe into HD discs with the PS3 (the 60 GB when the price recently dropped). Video goes via HDMI directly to the Samsung 50", audio to the 990 with its own "PS3" setting via the digital connection, which I play with the 7-channel DSP setting. Also, Netflix supplies all the software. Since I can't really integrate it into the MX-700 controller my wife doesn't feel comfortable playing her disks by herself, so I help out.

So far it's done just fine as a HD disc player, and someday I'll get the time to play Oblivion IV;-)
