Pioneer BDP-HD1 Review
The good: Excellent picture quality on Blu-ray movies; plays movies, music, and photos over home network via an Ethernet port; DVD upconversion to 720p, 1080i, and 1080p.
The bad: Very expensive; DVD upconversion isn't as good as the competition's; doesn't play CDs; no HDMI 1.3.
The bottom line: The high-priced Pioneer BDP-HD1 offers top-notch Blu-ray image quality and some nice home networking features, but inferior DVD upconversion and no CD playback curbed our enthusiasm.
