Economy grinch may pinchBlu-ray format [Reuters] "The economy is the biggest challenge, because there are just so many pieces to the Blu-ray puzzle that consumers face," said Disney's Lori MacPherson, "You need the high-definition television set, you need the player, you need the cables, you need the software . . ." "We're all constantly looking at (disc) pricing," said Rich Marty from Sony, "What it amounts to is that we'll wait until after the fourth quarter and see how it goes." Other: *Joshua Zyber @ http://www.highdefdigest.com writes the following on Comparing Blu-ray to DVD "Comparing Blu-ray to DVD Q: First, let me say that I love your reviews. Not the "Movie Itself" reviews, being subjective as they are, but the "Sizing Up the Picture" and "Rating the Sound." I often base my Blu-ray purchases on those two segments. I, like many other home theater enthusiasts I'm sure, am finding it expensive to update my catalog titles as they come out on Blu-ray. Some are movies that I only own on standard DVD that actually get what seem as bad reviews ('Predator', '28 Days Later', and 'X-Files: Fight the Future'). Would it be too much trouble to simply suggest that, "If you already own it on standard DVD, skip it as this Blu-ray version isn't worth buying the movie again"? A: I've watched and reviewed hundreds of Blu-ray discs by this point. Honestly, there are very, very few that don't offer at least some appreciable improvement over DVD. Certainly, some are more dramatic upgrades than others. But it's very rare indeed to find a Blu-ray that's no better than the comparable DVD edition of the same movie. As to whether a specific movie is worth repurchasing if you already own the DVD, that's something only you can answer for yourself. That decision will depend mainly on how big a fan you are of the film. In my own collection, I own several movies with lousy DVD transfers that I know have been released on Blu-ray with vastly superior video and audio quality. But I just don't care enough about those movies to buy them again, regardless of how much better the Blu-rays will be. Likewise, there are other movies that I will gladly repurchase several times over just for the tiniest of incremental improvements, because I love them so much. The purpose of a disc review isn't necessarily to tell you what to buy. A good review will provide enough information for you to make that decision on your own, factoring in your own opinions and circumstances. We have no way of knowing which movies you already own on DVD, what your financial situation may be, or what your priorities are. Although ideally it might be wonderful if every Blu-ray review could include a direct comparison to the DVD edition, the reality of the situation is that such a thing just isn't practical for the reviewers to provide on every title. We receive our Blu-ray screeners from the movie studios, and those studios rarely send copies to go with them, especially not for catalog titles that were last released on disc years ago. Even if we did happen to have a disk of the same movie lying around, you'll need to factor in how much extra time it would take to watch and rate two copies of the film. There are a few web sites out there that specialize in direct DVD vs. Blu-ray comparisons. We appreciate the extra time (and expense!) they put into those features as much as you do. But that just isn't our focus here. This is High-Def Digest , and frankly most of us here feel that High Definition is the new minimum acceptable quality standard for watching movies on home video. Ultimately, the intent of our reviews is to tell you how well the Blu-ray represents the best that each movie can look, not how much better it is than an inferior DVD copy. As such, we approach and judge each Blu-ray as a Blu-ray . And one last thing: I can assure you that every reviewer on this site puts just as much hard work into the "Movie Itself" portion of our articles as we do the technical portions. Taste in movies is of course subjective, but I hope that wouldn't prevent you from listening to another person's perspective and insight into a movie, regardless of whether you ultimately agree with his opinions or not." "DVD , also known as " Digital Versatile Disc " or " Digital Video Disc ," is an optical disc storage media format. Its main uses are video and data storage. DVDs are of the same dimensions as compact discs ( CDs ) but store more than six times as much data... As next generation High Definition more advanced optical formats such as Blu-ray Disc also use a disc identical in some aspects, the original DVD is occasionally given the retronym SD DVD (for standard definition ). However, the trademarked HD DVD discs have been discontinued since Blu-ray absorbed their market share." (wikipedia.org). Blue ray player (bluray dvd player) ~ blu ray player reviews. |
