"Wi-Fi Ready" means that the player manufacturer also makes a Wi-Fi adapter (sold separately) that can be plugged into the player's USB port. Only their adapter will work with the player, so you can't shop around for a cheaper adapter from another manufacturer that would also work with that player's USB port.

"Built-in Wi-Fi" means that the wireless adapter is already an internal component of the player, so you do not need to buy a Wi-Fi adapter for the player.

All Blu-ray Players that offer network streaming services will have an ethernet port that supports a wired connection, that is a standard component for those players. So if you wanted to save money you could buy a player without built-in Wi-Fi and then connect an ethernet cable from the ethernet port of the player to your router. It may not be as convenient to run an ethernet cable to your router, but it is cheaper option and a more stable connection than wireless.

You could also connect that type of player to another kind of wireless network adapter using an ethernet cable. Those adapters are not the small USB sized adapters sold for Wi-Fi ready players. They are sometimes called wireless gaming adapters, and can act as a bridge between any wired network devices and your wireless network
