Friend of mine wants to use his old blu ray player as a surround sound amp. Okay, sure it's supposed to have that functionality.

Struggle, struggle, struggle. Then I see on the back, a powered by Java sticker. Guess it's one of those 3 billion devices

All Blu-ray players have the Java logo, because Blu-ray menu's are written in Java.

@novasurp interesting. I did not know that

@TheBeardedOne Bill Gates considered this such a threat to C# that he collaborated with Toshiba to make a knock-off format called HD-DVD, which used C# instead of Java and only had 15 GB space instead of 25 GB space. They paid Dreamworks to exclusively use it until it flopped.

@novasurp Man this industry is wild
