I just found it funny and curious because it makes no sense, and was wondering the reason behind it.

Seriously though, who would buy the $1200 Denon player that: looks like it may be BD profile 1.0, has no special video processing, no builtin audio decoders and no analog outputs of any sort... When you can get the dual format BD/HD DVD Samsung BD-UP5000 with all the decoders + Reon video procesing + HDi + BD-J 1.1 for $800? $400 more for a player with 1/2 of the features and 1/2 the formats that will almost definitely look worse as an upconverter? Unless you like getting ripped off, I don't see the point.
