Unlike many others out there, I have not experienced any of the freezing problems. I purchased this about 6 months ago and have never updated the firmware because right out of the box, the player has worked beautifully. I got this to supplement my PS3 as a BluRay player when I quickly realized that my wife would want to watch movies as often as I'd want to play a game. Since I had already spent a chunk of money on the PS3 I didn't want to spend another small fortune on a stand-alone plain BluRay player. So I did some research and this player came up several times. After reading everything I could on it, I decided it fit the bill. It has better than average up-conversion and BluRay playback, has VieraCast for Amazon and Youtube and Netflix (if you're into that), and wouldn't break the bank. Now that I've had it for 6 months, I can say everything I read about the player is true. It performs like a champ and my movies look great. My only complaint is that the player is SLOW. Granted, my experience with BluRay is limited to this player and my PS3. But my PS3 starts up quickly, and seems to load and play my movies pretty snappily. Whereas the Panasonic takes 30 seconds just to start up when I hit the open/close button. Once it powers up and opens and takes my movie, it will be another 30-90 seconds while it loads the movie. It might just be that most BluRay players are like that. I'm only used to PS3, and before that, my DVD players (which were all machine gun fast compared to BluRay). So that's my only complaint. As far as it goes, it does annoy me, but honestly for the quality of the player and the price, I can learn to be patient with it.

Fantastic value for your money! - L. Siebler - Easton, PA
First off, I see several reviews on here that are negative because this player is not compatible with Netflix. Nowhere in the description does it say that it IS compatible, so I'm not sure why anyone would create a negative review based on the inability to play Netflix movies. If the description said it could play Netflix movies and you find that it cannot, then you have every right to give a negative review. Otherwise, if you want Netflix, look for a blu-ray player that specifically notes that it is Netflix compatible...

That being said, I bought this player for the purpose of playing blu-ray movies. It does an excellent job doing so. The quality is fantastic. Even when playing DVD movies, I have noticed a significant difference than if they were played with a DVD player. I highly recommend this player. I like it so much that I may even buy another one for another area in my home.

Can't play Netflix - Don't Be Hatin - OK, USA
I purchased this product last Xmas and have played a couple of Blu-Ray movies. I recently joined Netflix and "Panasonic Networking Blue-Ray Player" was listed as one of components to be able to play Netflix streaming video, so I decided to upgrade my wireless network from "G" to "N" just so that I can start watching Netflix streaming videos via my entertainment center. I got wireless network setup and Panasonic Blu-Ray player downloaded the latest firmware, and when I went to VIERA screen, Netflix was not listed. So I called customer service and the rep told me that this particular model does not support Netflix! I was SOOOOOO disappointed. The service rep told me that I have to have either DMP-BD65 or DPM-BD85 model.
