I just bought the TV used in great working condition and I ordered a Blu-ray player online. Has anyone played blu-ray on this tv? If so could you tell me how well it works or if it does at all. Thanks

I own all sony gear. i just got a 55 inch LCD (its awesome)? Im about to get a home theather system with blu-ray? Im curious if it plays DVD or would i have to get a dvd system? Im mostly buying blu-ray discs from now on (i even have blu-ray player/burner on my laptop) but some stuff is strictly DVD’s like old school movies.
