Well, it’s about time. We first saw the 400 disc MegaChanger in May and we had hoped that it would be out by now. Looks like the wait is almost over though. Sony has officially announced plans to release the BDP-CX7000ES in August for $1,900. Yeah, it’s pricey, but that’s about $300 cheaper than the price we had listed in May.

You are getting a lot for the money. Assuming you have 400 discs. This baby will handle any Blu-ray Disc, DVD or CD and works with the latest codecs delivered via bitstream or LPCM. Your other option is to hold off for a few months for the BDP-CX960, which is $800. But there will be no RS-232 and IR-in.

Looks like Sony will be releasing a 400-disc ES Series Blu-ray “Ultra Player” soon, for people who never leave the house. If this isn’t big enough to hold all of your movies, you need to get out from in front of the TV more. Do you think anyone owns 400 Blu-Ray discs yet? Maybe one guy out there.

Anyhow, we will soon see two new Blu-ray products from Sony: BDP-CX960 and BDP-CX7000ES. Most likely the CX960 will feature a 200 disc changer and the top of the line ES model will have a 400 disc capacity. Expect the Es model to cost about $2250.
