This new Blu-ray disc player offers a low price point of $499 and decodes Dolby Digital Plus, and advanced audio codec.
Additionally, this model plays back CDs, something the older previous model the, BDP-S1, did not.

Whether it does the advanced audio decoding interally of Dolby TRUEHD or DTS-HD (HR or MA) is not clear, but so far, no free BD discs are offered with its introduction.
This makes the Panasonic DMP-BD10A now coming out around Father's Day a bit more affordable with five free BD discs coming with it and advanced decoding included already.
