Put the money into the projector. I ran analog lossless for over three years and it is fantastic. I only am recently switching to digital as I needed a new receiver anyway and wiring is much simpler. The analog setup sounds amazing when it is set up properly. I was using both a Toshiba A1 and Panasonic BD-55 with it. I agree there is not much point to new receivers right now other than wiring simplicity and the ability to individually adjust speaker level and timing with a digital input source, (which you can do in the player anyway with analog) you do not gain much else.

Multichannel analog works great but there is more of a learning curve for setting it up properly since it will not use any of the applied receiver settings but use the ones provided by the Blu-ray player. The bass management of most blu-ray players (besides some very expensive ones) have fixed crossovers and limited settings compared to the setup menus in todays receivers.

For ease of use and the best possible features to calibrate your system with your Blu-ray player is a newer receiver that fully supports HDMI.

That said, I do use MC analog with my Panny and it sounds terrific. I do not feel the need to upgrade my receiver.
