Blu Ray possibly the reason why it quit? Blu Ray Live possibly fried something?
*Hrrrm*
Sounds like further investigating is needed.

I feel your pain, I just got my PS3 back from Sony, third time. I am the case 360 fans love. But I have had 3 different problems too.
I would say most likely your bd drive is shot. Try a dvd and a music cd. If you have a BC model try a ps2 game, and with any model a ps1 game. If any of them work it is the BD drive.
You can also try a downloaded game. Just grab a demo see if it works.

And this is why I don't play movies on my PS 3. Sorry for your luck. So what are you going to do? Getting the slim?

I've had this happen two times to me thought it died the other night and turned out to be a false alarm but still i wonder how many people have had this problem.

I feel for you. My PS3 died on me earlier this year. And I mean died. I couldn't even turn the bloody thing on. Gave me the Yellow Light of Death, the Red Ring of Death's lesser known cousin.
Sent it off to be fixed, so it's now back in the land of the living again. Cost me a lot of money, though.
Which PS3 did you have? Did it have PS2 backward compatibility (mine does, that's why I had it fixed)? If not, you probably better off getting a new one.

Sony replaced mine for free without a guarantee or anything. That may just be Sony Europe though. They've been known to die for inexplicable reason hence the freebie. Sorry though, very sucky.
