This is the first blu ray player I have owned. Blu-rays are known to be slower than their DVD counterparts, and this player sticks to that fashion. It seems as it depends more on the blu ray itself though rather than the player. Some discs load extremely quick and some are slower.
Overall the player has a nice sleek design. It's easy to use, easy to navigate. It doesn't have some extras that other blu ray players have such as pandora or netflix, but honestly, how many devices do you need in your living room that have those capabilities?
I would give it five stars except I was hoping that this player wouldn't inherit the inability to remember where you left off in a movie. With a dvd you can hit stop once, if you hit play again it will pick up in the same spot and if you hit stop twice it will restart the DVD. To my knowledge no blu ray player does this.

Stunning and Crisp BD and DVD picture for the price, and Regza link works very well
December 6, 2009
I have followed customer feedback, performance findings, and honest thoughts regarding this model's limitations and third-party manufacture concerns. And when I saw one of you mention the price dropping to $125 and (and even lower on Black Friday), I made the decision to purchase it.
My Toshiba BDX2000 arrived last week and I connected it to my 2009 Toshiba Regza 52" LCD. The high def images from blu-ray disk are stunning and just as crisp as those of my 2009 Samsung BDP1500 that the Toshiba blu-ray replaces. The DVD upconvert works remarkably well, and the DVD image is actually a touch better than on the Samsung. Of note, the sound output is somewhat better than what I got coming from the Samsung. Operation has been seamless with the exception of a high-pitched whine when it first started playing the very first time, but that sound ceased after the first ten minutes of playing the first movie and has not returned.
My Toshiba LCD Television's remote control unit is visually very appealing and is ergonomically well-laid-out, and it works flawlessly on the Toshiba blu-ray player as promised by the Regza link (****Note to those who indicated they had problems with the Regza link activation: Only after the "HDMI CDC" setting was activated on the blu-ray's menu and then also "RegzaLink" activated on the television's settings menu did it begin to function, and then functioned quite well, even the eject button from the television remote opens the blu-ray!). This is a good thing because I am not particularly pleased with the blu-ray remote's layout or appearance, so I pleased that I don't have to use it. I was unable to use a single remote on the Samsung blu-ray player, of course.
For someone like me who is an infrequent user and who is on a rather strict budget, I can live with this model's limitations, especially at this price. I don't need the Netflix or Amazon online movie access, and I can live without the live firmware update download option (I accept that I'll have to download firmware updates to a CD separately for the BDX2000).
In a nutshell, this unit is fine and I am pleased by the remarkable image and sound quality and Regza link convenience considering the low price. However, for anyone who wants the streaming content and directly downloaded firmware updates via (non-WiFi) Internet connection, I recommend the Panasonic DMP-BD60 recently on sale for around $125-$159. My neighbor has one and is very pleased, and I believe it offers access to Amazon's online movie content.
Note Regarding Samsung: My BDP1500 was purchased in late March 2009 when I purchased my Toshiba TV. The Samsung promptly ceased all function at 6 months and 3 days after the date of purchase. Geek Squad checked it out and said it was irreparable. Samsung would not replace it as the model because of warranty loopholes, I wasted eight whole hours on the phone with them over a four week period. That terrible customer service experience is the reason I chose to research Toshiba and Panasonic for my replacement blu-ray player and to swear-off Samsung for now. I found these customer reviews and related comments as a part of that research process and am eternally grateful.

Bought one of these on Black Friday as a gift. Stood out in the cold for an hour to get it for $79. I thought I'd test it out before handing it over to the recipient who is not as techno savvy as myself so I could give a heads up of any issues I found.
I have a Panasonic BD-60 myself so that's what I base my comparison on. Load time is up to par with other current stand alone players (30secs-1 min) average. I tested the BD-Live access time with Transformers and it took about 2 mins from disc menu to BD-Live menu. I am playing G.I. Joe right now as I type and picture quality as well as audio quality is great. The menu is simple as is the remote (which won't win any beauty contests). The design of the unit itself is sleek and stylish.
Note that the Ethernet port is for BD-live content only and not for downloading firmware updates like the Panasonic player does (there are none for this player to date) but when there is apparently a disc will have to be made.
Overall I think this a great entry level player and would make a perfect gift for a Blu-ray newbie or someone wanting an extra player for the bedroom.
P.S. PLEASE pay no attention to the 1 star reviews from the bitter HD-DVD fanboys. Though I was on board with Blu-ray from the beginning I commend Toshiba for a smart business decision and putting a darn good player on the market in time for the holidays.
