This player passes the advanced audio codecs for Blu-ray over HDMI 1.3 for processing by an external decoder including DTS-HD MA. I don't need a player or I would sure buy this. It qualifies for 5 free Blu-ray software titles by mail and the list of available titles is linked to the Amazon.com sale information.

I think other online sellers have the same deal including Vanns.
