I know there's been bickering back and forth about whether or not to use the PS3 as a primary Blu-ray player, but I don't think I've seen anyone make a straightforward pro/con comparison... hence this thread.

I'm starting it because I'm in the market for a Blu-ray player and I can't keep straight why, or why not, a PS3 is the way to go as a primary layer.

Aside from the physical aesthetics of the PS3, what are the reasons for not buying one as a primary Blu-ray player? I seem to remember something about the audio not being up to par? Oh, and it doesn't support infrared remotes?

The video quality is good though, correct? Anything else?

When people have chimed in with their thoughts I'll edit the first post to populate the lists further. And since people have different priorities I figure I'll call each pro/con a potential pro/con, since folks will make up their own mind if each bullet is a pro or con for them.
