I bought this player several months ago, before updates added CinemaNow. I've had no problems with blu-ray DVDs so far, except Mad Men, seasons 1 & 2, where the DVD won't initially play, and the image isn't in 1080p since Mad Men is in 780p. Opening the load tray once or twice, and the DVDs plays fine. This seems to be a problem with Mad Men according to Amazon.com reviews.
I've tried CinemaNow, and there are a some issues. There is no chapter skip, so you have to run through the entire movie to get to a chapter, unless you stop the movie mid-play. Then the movie picks up where you last stopped. Additionally, the picture is good, but playing a blu-ray disc is a much cleaner image.
Also, I have the Roku player for Netflix, and this player's video image on this player is the same as the Roku player. Some movies are HD and look great, and some are adequate.
The Youtube option is fun, and very time consuming, but since you can subscribe to movie & television shows on Youtube, I wish this would carry over to this player. Right now it's just short uploaded videos from individual subscribers.
Overall, I would highly recommend this player, specifically for the wi-fi option. I for one don't want to plug my DVD player for updates/internet access. Get more detail about LG BD 390 Network Blu-ray Disc Player.
