Blu-ray news

Apparently people prefer to buy upconverters rather than buy new blu-ray players, and I would probably do the same thing too, since apparently people cant tell the difference between the picture. I would need a better side by side comparison. Also upconverters are like way cheap compared to blu-ray players. HD-DVD revival?

A little late, but I've got a bit to say here...

...there is a very clear difference between upconversion and true HD. Perhaps if people don't have a good enough TV, then it could be hard to tell.

And then there's some of the idiots who think that just because they buy a device that plays HD formats, that they suddenly "have HD" on their 20 year old TV set. Negatory.

I had an HD-DVD player and an upconverting player, and the difference is phenomenal...

Personally, I'm not going to buy anything HD just yet. Because unless they're capable of also playing regular DVDs, I am NOT going to spend a small fortune buying the same DVDs again. Con-artist bastards...

All of the first and second gen. HD format players we're completely capable of playing regular DVD's. If they still can or not is unknown to me, but I can only imagine that they still can.
