well i just extended the life of my 1070 - finally lept into blu waters with the pick up of the pioneer bdp-51fd. i found a made in japan model open box at best buy in pristine condition for 199.99. With full analog out, DTS-MA (with upcoming fw upgrade) (and the rest of the relevant decoding), all while keeping my receiver, I couldn't turn that down.
It's a slow loader but once it's up in running it sounds great, and at that price, that's a really low entry price for finally getting into blu for a once disgruntled hd-dvd guy.
The 1070 lives on
