I currently own a Seiki Blu-Ray 660 Bluray player, which has great picture quality ,but on some blurays it will skip?
So I was wondering should I buy a Sony Bdp s270 or maybe a Sony Bdp s360.
The s270 is $128 while the s360 is $99.
The other reason why I am thinking of upgrading is that the Sony's have upgradable firmwares while the Seiki will likely never seen any updates.
So what should I do?
EDIT:
Will I notice a picture quality difference?

I doubt there will be much if any difference in picture quality.
I originally had a Sony blu-ray player that I "upgraded" to a Panasonic, since I bought a home theatre system, and I like the UI of the Panasonic way better.
It's one of those net-ready players that can do youtube, netflix and the like. I quite like it. :)

As to picture quality, I have a very high end 3d blue ray player, and a very basic sony blue ray player that was later updated to 3d with a software update.
The much cheaper sony has a picture just as good (over HDMI). I use the sony almost exclusively now.

DVD version of my reply: I o a e V o g L o l a , u n c h y r i n h - r s t p u q i .
Blu-ray version of my reply: If you watched DVDs on a good LCD or plasma TV, you'd notice that you're missing three-quarters of the picture quality.
