Or at least, cheap for blu-ray.  Seems that the folks at LG are set to put their LG BD370 out for a hundred and fifty bucks.

Now, admittedly, that’s not as good a deal as the recently announced special from Best Buy in which they were offering their Insignia brand NS-BRDVD3 blu-ray player for a whopping ninety nine bucks, but there is actually a reason to consider picking this one up.

Again, like the insignia, it’s compatible with Netflix’s streaming video.  But the difference here is that LG was the FIRST to do it.

You might be able to wonder if “first”, otherwise known as the most annoying post on any message board, is worth an extra sixty bucks.  And you’d be right to do so, but I ask you to consider just one point:  if LG did it first, then aren’t they most likely to know how to do it BEST?  And that likelihood is probably worth an extra sixty bucks.
