Always wanted to get behind an obsoleting optical standard? Don’t want to buy a PS3? Here’s your chance to get a sub-$100 Blu-Ray player from Woot!

For the price it’s a pretty good deal. I’d just buy it for Netflix and Pandora playback, but you can buy it for the BD support. Some pertinent specs before you head over and breathlessly press the button:

Get streaming online video from online services like Blockbuster® and Netflix®
Listen to your favorite music on Pandora™ Internet radio
Connect to your home network with or without wires; the player has both Ethernet and Wi-Fi options built in
Watch Blu-ray movies in full high definition (HD) quality up to 1080p
Play standard DVDs and up convert them to near-HD quality
Get the most from your speakers, with 2.0 channel analog audio output or up to 7.1 channels of Dolby™ Digital Plus surround sound
Integrated Wi-Fi for wireless streaming with your home network
HDMI 1.3 Digital Interface – Supports up to 1920 x 1080 Output
