I have a tv with high definition capability, but I do not have the hd converter box. Also can a blu-ray dvd player play regular dvds not just blu-ray disks?

Answer
You just connect the blu-ray player directly to your HDTV. There is no "HD converter box" needed (are you talking about the digital TV tuner? that's only used by your antenna, not things like a blu-ray player.)

Blu-ray players can play regular DVDs as well, and upscales them just like those upscaling DVD players.

What do I need to consider when buying a blu-ray dvd player?

I am thinking about upgrading my dvd player to a blu-ray as I have purchased a 1080P HDTV. Sony has a unit for $369.00 (Walmart) is this a good price or is it too basic? Help!!!

Answer
It really depends on how you plan to use it. Bluray devices will:

Play disks
Record blank disks with video, audio, pictures or data
Connect to Internet for additional content/features
Play high resolution games, locally or on the Internet

If you just want to watch movies, the Sony you've looked at is a fine choice.

If you want to play games, PlayStation 3!

If you want to log onto additional movie content from the Internet, you will need a machine with an ethernet connection, and you will have to connect to your home network with a cable or a wireless bridge

If you want to record blank disks, I'd recommend getting a Bluray burner installed in a computer. You can use an existing (newer powerful) computer or buy a dedicated one for your HDTV.
