I have owned the unit for about 3 weeks. Waited too long and can not return. I have spent 2 days emails back and forth to Sony support. Issues are several of the apps will not load. Sony Essentials site only lists 5 of 35 available. Sony told me to use that site to link apps? that do not show on the site (they do show on the device, just come back with error.) So Sony's site is bad, the unit is bad and no help. The support replies were evasive and like trying to talk to a very immature child. No knowledge was obvious. I bought this unit because I own two other Sony Blue Ray older models which Discontinued You Tube accessibility. NOW Note this new one comes with Playstation app but Sony is scheduled to DISCONTINUE that one per Sony site. So let see, Over Boast Features, sell items with features that Do Not Work or Discontinue Features and offer No Support or answers. And have a site to manage the devices ( Sony Essentials) that is extremely flawed which was seemingly admited by support (not sure do to the evasive hard to follow vague answers). Further the box claimed some stupid number of 300 + apps available. It has maybe 25% of the claimed number. Insane and I am now out $120 for another sorry excuse of a product and company. I hope I Iearned this time to never bUy Sony again. Note no offer was ever given to pursue warranty or a fix. Just an apology from support that no ETA exists but maybe someday a software update might fix. Really?
I want mention Best Buy simply sold me the product and are not at fault. Return policy should be more than 15 days. It was two weeks before I realized my error in purchasing this unit and now I must try to resolve with uncooperative Sony. I will not resolve. I will take my loss and never buy Sony again as I am not going to pay to send it to who knows where to likely not be fixed.

No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

How likely is it that Sony will disable YouTube or some of the other apps in the next year or two? They disabled it on my DVP-NC800H player shortly after I purchased it.
I lost You Tube on 2 other older Sony Blue Ray players because Sony was no longer compatible with You Tube. I bought the S6700 and it plays You tube but several important apps will not load and Sony has been zero assistance. The S6700 comes with a Playstation app which Sony is scheduled to discontinue. I am very unhappy with lack of reliability.
