What you say you have 400 Blu-Ray discs sitting around already and you want to be able to access them all with the touch of a button.  No Problem Sony has answered your dreams, and solved all your problems.

They are about to release two long awaited 400 Disc Blu-Ray Players model BDP-CX960 & the CX7000ES This marks round 3 of the format wars I guess.  All kidding aside the Changers will work with DVD’s and the new Blu-Ray discs.  Of course it will work great with our Home Automation Systems, which would allow you to access your entire movie catalog simply by touching the cover work icon for your favorite flick on your iPhone or iPod Touch, if you prefer you can go the old fashioned route and use a remote control.  

The Changer comes in two models the higher priced EX7000ES features ir & serial ports to work well with a home automation system, it also features the new 12-Bit Deep color support.  It sounds like both will include interactive features and wireless N technology, although we cannot yet find official information and specs on Sony’s website.   The more affordable CX960 also supports 7.1 channel Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD Master Audio and bitstream audio, and can be picked up for $800 This would be great for anyone that has most all of their equipment located in a basement.  If you are asking what happens when I have more than 400 DVD’s I can honestly say I am jealous, but don’t have a fear you can link two of the Blu-Ray Changers together.   If you have over 800 you may have to start picking and choosing which make it into your in home on demand collection.

I can highly recommend purchasing one of these and loading it up with the entire collection of the television series 24 before starting your 2 week vacation from work.
