Something spinning that fast reading that much data and you don't think stabilizing the unit and reducing microvibrations won't be beneficial? It's people like you who end-up writing for Consumer Reports or working as a government inspector.

Life of Brian, I get it.

First of all, sure, put pads under a record player, especially if it is set on a amp, or Heaven forbid, speaker. But a Blu Ray player? The servo controlling the laser head is amazingly fast and precise. Any problem caused by vibration would be removed by the servo mechanism. Worst case, you would get reading errors.

So, short of reading errors, which would give you obvious noise/dropouts in the sound/video, any subtle vibrations would have no effect. Two billion bits per minute are being read.

Worry not, Sarah Palin will fix it all in '12

  Out of curiosity I placed Symposium Rollerblock�s 2 under my cheap Oppo DVD player. The improvement was very noticeable. Go figure.
