I have a glossy display but wish I had a matte display because of glare... What is the best flim/cover/etc to cut down on glare without reducing quality of the screen and is easy to put on?
Thanks

What you're asking for doesn't exist. They all reduce the quality of the display and IMO are not worth it.

Radtech sells excellent products. I've had no experience with the screen cover myself but there is an install video and it looks pretty effective.

I put one on my 13" MBP..
Pros: Does a great job at reducing glare. Not too bad a price.
Cons: Pain to install without bubbles, I gave up and just live with a couple of bubbles. Greatly reduces the quality of the display. Hard to explain, but makes it feel like a 10 year old LCD.
I wish Apple offered a Matte option for the 13".
