The new OPPO Digital UDP-203 question

Hi.  Not sure if anyone already answered this but I read a Nov (inside) review of this new model to be launched in Dec/Jan and it was mentioned that it's not going to include on-line streaming services such as Netflix and YouTube.  Can anyone absolutely confirm this?  That would be a deal killer for me.  What about the coming UDP-205?  Will that be launched with these streaming apps?

nobody knows, but I do think we should keep launching new threads on these players every 2 weeks

Why not ask Oppo? They're supposed to have good customer service.

That would be kind of ridiculous as most 4k content has to be streamed.

Today I called OPPO Digital directly at their main U.S. headquarters and spoke with someone in Tech Support.  He did confirm that the new UDP-203 will not be released with streaming services such as YouTube, Netflix, Hulu , etc.  They have no plans to add any at a later date and the same goes for the pending UDP-205.   I should have called before I asked here on the forum.  But at least we all know now.  For me, that's a deal breaker.  Back to the search.

I am now streaming Tidal directly from Oppo 105 , balanced outout to Krell 300i amp. I am using my Ipad Oppo Media to browsing the mass CD library. The sound is amazing. Tried Oppo for streaming Netflix, not as good as my Apple TV box. Since I am using Tidal, I havn't touch mh CD collection for a long time.
