#1 | Hey all,
I've got a 42" LG plasma which is 1080P ready.
I decided to splash out and i brought a sony blu-ray player yesterday.
Tried a DVD out at home (i don't own any blu-rays yet), but i couldn't see any difference in quality.
Is it meant to be noticeable?
Cheers | |

#2 | er it doesn't magically make DVDs HD quality. . it might upscale them but DVDs are not high def.
There is a huge difference between the quality of a DVD and Blu Ray. |

Blue Ray Disks are still so Bloody Expensive. . wether they are that much better? ? ? ? well that is truly debatable. . |

#6 | | Disks are so inconvenient. I wonder two things : will blu-ray ever outsell DVD and will there still be any market for either of them in ~2014, after the new international cable + fibre to the home etc is finished? |

#8 | Although many resolutions and formats are supported, most consumer DVD Video discs use either 4:3 or anamorphic 16:9 aspect ratio MPEG-2video, stored at a resolution of 720/704×480 (NTSC) or 720/704×576 (PAL) at 29. 97, 25, or 23. 976 FPS
from wikipedia. Full HD is 1920×1080 and 1280×720 HD Ready. | |
