Not as bad as reviewed here, but certainly not great either.
I’ve had this device for some time now. The loading issue is one of three issues that I’ve had with it.

Awful. Just awful.I bought this several years ago when the HD/Blue Ray wars ended.
I purchased several Blue Ray discs and was content with the initial viewing.

Not even 1 star. Had to in order to post.
Purchased 2, one for the bedroom and one for the family room. Starting time, loading times are unacceptable. Quality of the hd/bd is glossy without detail @1080P24fps.

This device is technically functional but only barely.
This player is very slow to load movies. Some people have reported 10-15 minute load times. I wouldn’t know, as I haven’t gotten it to load a movie at all yet.

I’ll never buy Sony again
I bought the BDP-S300 in March of 2008. I’ve had all the freeze up problems, problems with rented DVD’s mentioned in these reviews. The unit has the 4.

Doesn’t play many rented Blu-Ray movies
Bought this in Fall 07. I have used it sparingly and maintained it meticulously(firmware is current, unit is clean), but it doesn’t play many rented Blu-rays.

Freez and Skip
I am forced, sadly, to agree with the negative reviews, this unit skips and freezes and is useless, of course it is well past it’s return date and I did not waste money on…

I wouldn’t recommend this
As an avid film fan, I considered it essential to get on board with the HD technology, which I did shortly after the format war was over.

Garbage… Complete Garbage
I bougth one of these players, and every time I go to play rented movies the darn thing skips. Once a month you have to update firmware, what a waste of money.
