No you can't. The apps are hardwired in the firmware. It is possible that LG might update the firmware at some point to include some other apps, but we don't know if or when that will happen.

You can download Apps from other stores but Google Play is not supported. Cheers!

You don't stream the compatible versions. You just download an play. Everything else you stream.

you have to download software. The cd that came with the unit provides the software links, as well as older, dated, software. Also, on android, you can find an app to view recoded files and real-time streaming.

It is pre-installed with Google Play. So, you can download all the available apps.

yes, you can download all sorts of apps. It doesn't work very well for some of the high tech ones, but most standard ones it works just fine. You can delete them if they don't work. I have put in extra storage that helps.

I have the 950Q (predecessor of the 955Q). Current models of LG Blu-Ray Players can playback the Transport Stream (*.ts) files that this player creates. I suppose other brands can do the same but LG is all I have right now.

Software can be downloaded online or you can request a disc from us - I would need to know what you operating system you have and if you are needing a media player to play blu ray/dvd or the burning software to burn cd/dvd/blu ray - Thank you

So far when I've attempted to find apps (such as Pandora, Amazon Prime, etc...,) LG pulls them up on their app store. It's not like through iOS or Droid market. I can't say for sure if the Plex app is available but I believe that there are numerous media apps available through LG's app store and I think I recall Plex being one of those apps. Please don't take that for fact though.

You can install any app that is in the android App Store. It runs android base software. Can surf the web, install and run apps, and run computer software. This box is mainly used for XBMC software and comes pre-installed. With software, there is no need for HBO GO or any other television viewing program

I don't believe so. If there is, I've not found it. There's no browser so you're locked to the services set. Netflix, YouTube and Pandora. There used to be a Blockbuster service and I kept expecting Samsung to update my machine with a replacement like Amazon Streaming but that's never happened and considering this models age, I doubt Samsung is doing anything. I don't think they consider it part of the package they sold me.

Hey, New information!!!! Download the two zip files under BD570 from http://www.lg.com/us/support/product/support-product-profile.jsp?customerModelCode=BD570&initialTab=drivers&targetPage=support-product-profile unzip them and put the files from the two files on a usb drive formated for NTFS. You could try doing it with FAT32, mine was NTFS though. Plug it into the USB port on the player and it will ask you if you want to update. It added a channel in Netcast and fixed a common problem with Netflix.

Yes, it is one of the "Apps" that you can load. It also supports Hulu, Netflix, Amazon streaming and several others. It is a fine product.

There are downloads available. As I remember, most are content channels, i.e.; Netflix, Pandora, VUDU, etc.. I don't recall if there are any games available.
