doesn't sound like that big of a deal to me,
some dvd's you can't skip adverts etc,
on blu-ray you can skip most times form my experience,i only use my controller,
but you're right sometimes it remembers where you are,sometimes it doesn't not too sure why,but is it such a big deal to go to scenes to pick up where you left of,
blu-ray menus/features are superb,miles better than dvd's
