So you take home your brand-new $1000 Samsung BD player, and a couple months later you put in a dual-layer BD disc and it doesn’t work! How does that scenario grab you? If you’re a Samsung owner, I’d guess that you’d be pretty pissed.

There is some good news, however. Supposedly this problem can be fixed with a firmware update. But I have to wonder - do they know that for sure at this point? Is any of this official?

But wait! There’s more! Supposedly other players are being affected by this problem as well. With the PS3 going into production soon, this has to be ironed out ASAP.
