My answer is not cheapest, but best deal:
Samsung BD-P2500/BD-P2550 is Blu-Ray, built-in NetFlix, built-in Pandora Radio, and 1GB flash memory installed (to reduce buffering). The LG alternate has no internal memory; although it has a USB port where expansion memory can be added; unfortunately the USB port is up front which turns the nice look of the player Ugly! Samsung, for sure!

Stick this in a PC for $120:

Or this for $90:

This is about cheap as a standalone player gets:

This is another reasonable option, though it's not shipping from amazon, the seller gets decent ratings:

Specifically note that a refurbished one is about $180 shipped, and the player gets good ratings.


Buy the cables from Monoprice to maximize cheapness:

You can probably find something for a little bit less money right now. I saw a random Sylvania for $200, and there's probably some uber-cheap brand of them being sold for less, but there's a point where you fall off the cheap end. ha ha ha.

The Playstation 3 is a blu-ray, and although it may not be the cheapest, but you also get the best gaming console with it.

I was going to say the same thing. Not the cheapest, but the best value.

Go to target when Blu-ray movies ask about Blu-rays and you can get them pretty cheap
