[Total Tool]

I recently bought a 3d smart TV. It has wifi built in.

Is there any reason I would want a blu ray play that is also "smart"?

I can think of a few, but none are compelling enough to spend extra money if you don't want to.

If you wanted to put the BluRay player on a different TV that WASN'T "smart", it might be nice to have that functionality on 2 TVs (ie, bedroom TV).

Or if the BluRay offered something the TV didn't (for a while, Hulu+ was only on SOME devices, for example).

Other than that... meh.
