[QUOTE="Matthew Blaisdel, post: 117434, member: 26"] Maybe that's the difference. I'm a tech nerd and I do care about quality, it means so much to me that i'd rather have something NOT at all than in bad quality. But of course you need all quality components to get the real difference. Starting from a good quality big flat TV. But the difference is there, and it's huge. It's like ... old and nuDynasty! :lol: But most arguments of people are pure nonsense. If they said "I'm not really interested in good quality in gereral", i could accept it more. But they say "Blurays are more expensive". Compared to nowadays to DVDs that might be right. But if you set it in the correct context, let's say when DVDs were quite new as Blurays are now - waaaaay wrong. I paid 100 dollars for a single season of the x-files on DVD. Today you get the whole thing, 9 seasons on Bluray for 89,99. Twin Peaks on Bluray is way cheaper than it was on DVDs at the time. I paid around 50$ for a Dynasty season on DVD, hard to find any season of any show on bluray for that price. Bluray was never more expensive than DVDs- seen in the right context. A decent movie on DVD cost around 30 Dollars at the time. People tend to forget that, but it's the truth. A decent bluray release is between 10 and 20 dollars today. And they even come with nonsense like "i don't like the blue cases" when a black bluray-case costs less than a dollar on Amazon. You can't be [I]that[/I] cheap-o! :laughs: An okay bluray player costs around 80$ which is not even the amount of 2 DVD box sets, plus they are DVD compatible as well. So if people say "i'm not a person that gives much about quality" that's okay. But nonsense arguments i can't stand. Because those socalled arguments spread and influence others and that's the problem and that's what made the Bluray a fail and that's the reason why the studios hesitate ro remaster all our beloved shows into HD.
