The ￥40,000 asking price is also a bit much (although it seems to be on par with similar devices from manus like Gefen). For that money, you can get a standalone set-top Blu-ray player, and have money leftover to buy a few titles.

Such devices limit bluray playback to this resolution but doesn’t always mean that 1920×1080 (1080p) isn’t possible.

Very curious device. I wonder if the USB is 2.0 and yes, a gigabit ethernet would seem a better choice for video playback.
