Unless you stream most of your new or classic videos, a Blu-ray player is essential for having a complete home theater or viewing environment. Compared to regular DVD players, a Blu-ray adds the ability to watch Blu-ray videos in full splendor. The 1080p resolution is perfect for most televisions that do not support the higher solution of true 4K. Best of all, most modern Blu-ray options offer 3D compatibility and access to streaming services like Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Video built right into the player so you can access more movies and TV shows without needing a smart TV. You can even continue to watch standard DVDs and listen to CDs if you want a complete multimedia experience without a lot of extra equipment.
