Egreat S2
The same machine as the Allure M3 except for the use of a full external SATA port rather than eSATA. On the hardware side this player is impeccable. supporting 2 HDDs (one internal and one external), BD-ISO, internal Blu-Ray optical, and every HD-Audio format.

The problem with this player (and several others) is in the firmware. All S2s supplied to date have used a firmware that has now been established as 'borrowed' from the Dune 3. This renders the Egreat S2 impossible to sell legally in any country with copyright laws. So although there have been many high quality firmware releases for this player there is no guarantee of support in future.
