Customer Service
Review:
I have now had two of these units. Yes, they are that good however, both of the units I have had have developed a problem after about 13 months. The DVD drive on both stopped working, the first unit was taken back and refunded. I purchased another but again the DVD drive has failed after a little over a year. Received an update from Liteon which didn't work, have been trying to get another response from them for about 9 weeks. Still waiting. Until this fault, I would have rated the product much higher. It is the customer service which is appalling.

Panasonic SC-BTX70
Well-specified and its picture quality is first-rate, but it doesn't quite sound awesome enough to justify its cost
Sony BDP-S760
At last, we have the awesome Blu-ray player we've so long suspected Sony was capable of making
