I dont see the hype either. Recent dvd movie releases (2006-present) have HD-like quality and sound because film makers have upgraded their cameras and whatever stuffs they use into better ones. If you'll compare movies made for example in 2000 to 2004 there's an obvious difference in picture quality,like color,and sound. I have The Dark Knight and Wanted dvds and their picture and sound are both astounding! Truly HD versus my 2001 Planet of the Apes. This bluray thing is all about business. They will create something new for us to make us feel somehow obsolete. Therefore people feel outdated and compelled to try these new stuffs. Each year they will reveal like two or few features and you'll suddenly feel your 2-year old gadget is a decade old. I'm sure 10 years from now they will entice the public of another super-mega-ultimate HD player and bluray will gradually be buried in history.
You can enjoy films with excellent picture and sound quality.If you are interested in it ,please look at this website: www.besthdsoft.com ,you will find more surprise!!! I am sure you will like it!!!

How many people think that Blu ray players %26amp; Blu ray DVDs are to expensive?I can afford it. Not a big deal for me to spend 25 bucks on a BD. Just bought Dark Knight 2-disc BD and all I have to say is money well spent. If one can't afford it, or one doesn't see the difference between BD and DVD, then there is no point for that person to even look into BD. Leave it alone. Let those people stay in lower quality standards. Most of them are about story and screenplay and not visuals and sound. But eventually, they will make the switch, as in a few years, HD will become standard, and something else will be of greater quality, as always.
As for storage space, all of that space on the disc is used up. Films take up a whole lot of space, so having more space on a disc means less compression, and more better looking visuals %26amp; audio. This is one of the things that allows HD to be possible. All that space is used on those BD's. The whole 25 or 50 gigs.How many people think that Blu ray players %26amp; Blu ray DVDs are to expensive?
Blu-Ray discs, or BDs--not Blu-Ray "DVDs"--*are* too expensive. That's why, despite the fact I've had a BD player for a year, I don't own any. High price is always an issue with new media formats. It happened when DVDs came out and CDs before that.
Is there too much hype about Blu-Ray? First of all, marketing/advertising isn't "hype", it's a company trying to convince you to buy something.
So what about Blu-Ray? Do you own an HD TV? Do you want a better picture? That's all Blu-Ray is--a better picture. It's the fulfillment of an HD TV. With regular TV programming you don't need an LCD.
Is it necessary? No, not really. But then a lot of things aren't necessary. Are you listening to phonographs? Do you use an abacus? Do you ride a wagon to work? Are you typing on your computer by candlelight? Not all technological advancements are necessary, but many of them make life easier or more enjoyable.
@Caroline: "on my plasma tv any dvd you put in the dvd player is in HD anyway, so i don't get it" It may look good, but it isn't in HD. If you play a Blu-Ray on that plasma it will look even better.
I'm sure the price may be still too high for some to switch, but the price is continuing to go down, and even the software is coming down closer to the DVD format, so Blu-Ray is starting to look like a good choice for high-definition home movie viewing. I took the plunge recently, and (besides the processing takes longer than a standard DVD player), I'm not looking back. Blu-Ray is worth it if you have an HDTV, and especially if it is capable of 1080p resolution.
Happy viewing!
actually they have gone down in price for the holidays, walmart had a bluray player for under $200
yeah, i don't really see the point to blu ray. i mean, on my plasma tv any dvd you put in the dvd player is in HD anyway, so i don't get it.
how much are blu ray movies anyway?
