MUMBAI: Sony has unveiled its latest Blu ray player. Incorporating the latest in cutting edge technology, the BDP-S360 delivers pristine 1080p picture quality, with full 7.1 surround sound via a compatible AV receiver.

This feature continues to break new ground, breathing fresh life into your movie viewing by allowing you to download and stream bonus content such as additional scenes, trailers and movie-based games. The BDP-S360’s built-in USB port means that exclusive additional content can also be downloaded from special websites dedicated to movies boasting these features and saved onto an optional USB flash storage device.

We believe that the BDP-S360 is a must for every HDTV owner, as it combines sleek product design with high-class performance features. This new model shows we are 100% committed to the constant development of our Blu-ray range to ensure that we are incorporating the latest format advancements.
