Hi, Jim. I can't speak to all of your audio types, but I have a Sony DBP-S3100 ($88 on Amazon right now), and it streams Netflix just great (as well as Amazon Instant Video and Hulu Plus). Netflix is in HD and 5.1. I also use it to play files off of a USB thumb-drive, as well as stream movies to it from my Mac (or PC) using PS3 Media Server. All in all, I've been really happy with it.
