LG’s new Blu-ray players aren’t out yet, but that doesn’t have to stop you from wanting them. If you’re looking for a quick fix, the manual for the BD550 is online now.
It might not be the top of LG’s new Blu-ray lineup, but if you’re into gear like we’re into gear, you’ll want to take a peek at the manual for the BD550.
Sure, there’s nothing that’ll come as a huge surprise. You’ve got Netflix, CinemaNow, YouTube, VUDU and Pandora all available thanks to NetCast. It plays back Blu-ray discs in 1080p and is BD-Live compliant.
The BD550 will rip CDs down to a USB drive, which is a cool feature, but the manual doesn’t say which format it rips to. In fact, it specifically says that it “records CDs” to a thumb drive, which is a bit of an odd use of the terminology.
Leaked information is always exciting, and the full user manual for the BD550 being available before it releases is right up there. But come on LG, how bout leaking some more info on the BD590?
