OPPO BDP93 or the Panasonic BDT310. Which one is for me?

Even BD uses data compression for the video.

See:

It just uses less compression than broadcast TV, which uses less compression than is used for cable and satellite.

Most likely, you have never seen an uncompressed 1080p video.

True, but Netflix is way more compressed than any of those. Bandwidth is too much of a concern still. PQ and AQ will be mediocre for some time, I would guess.
