Great gift for my dad for Christmas. It is a little light on the features, but it is still good.
 Piece of junk; Blu-ray technology is flawed August 26, 2010
Mathias S.
It's incredible the amount of aggravation I get from being all excited when a new movie comes out, bringing it home, unwrapping the plastic, and putting it in my blu ray player, so I can watch it recognize the disc, start to load, and then just sit there. And not play the movie. I would give it more stars for picture and sound quality, but it would have to play the discs first. I have the most current firmware, and even if a movie plays, it loses audio sync partway through the movie, and it's like I'm watching a 70's kung fu movie. Not exactly the high definition experience they advertise.
Part of this is LG's fault, for making a crappy player, and some of it is blu ray for crippling the discs with copyright protection that make all the firmware updates a necessity. They need to have the firmware roll out to the players first, then the movies. This is BS that I have to wait until LG gets around to writing the new firmware, so that I can watch the movies I've already purchased.
I'm just going to start pirating the movies and streaming them from my HTPC.
 worked great....at first August 25, 2010

I bought this player in nov 09 and it worked great at first. about 8 months after purchase the unit began over heating and freezing alot. progressively it stopped working all together. I downloaded the updates and installed them . Unfortunately this did not help. LG offers a one year warranty on parts alone. the labor warranty is only 90 days. When I called them about the repairs i was told i would be charged 70 dollars to repair the unit. at that point i figured what is the point of the warranty then?! I did nothing to make this unit malfunction. the rep said she would try to get the labor fee waived but could not guarantee anything. At this point I would rather buy another unit that wont die after 8 months than pay more money for something that may break again in 8 months .
Worked great for 6 months... August 15, 2010

We were very pleased with this player until it stopped reading blu-ray discs. If you're super lucky you can get it to read one, but mostly it just makes a funny noise and says "disc error".
 May Need Firmware Update August 2, 2010

I bought the LG BD270 several months ago from Amazon.com. It performed flawlessly for months until last month when I received new B-Ray disks. The Paul Simon Gerswin Prize Concert and a B. B. King B-Ray disk would not play. I returned those to Amazon.
Today I received Collective Soul's "Home" B-Ray disk and that too would not play. That was when I checked the reviews for the player and found out that others have experienced the same problem. It appears that the LG BD270 does not recognize newer B-Ray disks and will need firmware upgrade. I'll keep my Collective Soul disk for a future player from another manufacturer.
UPDATE:
I've received the firmware from LG Corp. It took about 5 minutes to update, and alas, my Collective Soul disk plays so beautifully. I'm going to reorder the Paul Simon BluRay disk I returned to Amazon.com
