Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

After a year or so of using it, this device went dead: the power switch wouldn't work via the unit's switch or a remote control; and the TV stopped recognize the HDMI input, though I saw a "Blu-ray" screen frozen up on the TV. Before this happened, the Wi-Fi signal strength decreased to below 40% from 90%, at which point I was beginning to be skeptical about the stability of the device. (The Wi-Fi signal problem may not be related to the device freezing up). I don't have time nor energy to research on the HDMI problem I have: so, the unit is a trash now. When I first started to use it, I thought it was a nice little player; 4 1/2 star-rating was irresistible as well. Sigh.
