If Blu-ray Is Dying, Why Are Disc Sales Soaring?

Does this mean Blu-ray has a future after all? It certainly appears so. Lower prices may be helping. Many Blu-ray players are now under $200, and Blu-ray movies sell for a little as $10. The HD format displays a prettier picture -- albeit not dramatically so -- than the HD content delivered by video-on-demand and online movie download and streaming services. http://www.pcworld.com/article/16329...s_soaring.html -- Certified SPAM-free sig

Not dramatically so? Well...maybe if you are watching it via a composite connection on an SD television. For me on a 58" Plasma the difference between OTA Network Broadcast HD and a Blue Ray disc is night and day, especially when it comes to any difficult material.

The author's (Jeff Bertolucci) opinion, not necessarily mine.
