    Yeah, Blurray = more expensive, overrated and no one can really tell the difference. Most still get DVDs anyways.

    I can tell the difference, it's mostly in the sound quality honestly.

    yeah it's mostly the same thing, blu-ray is just uncompressed (to a degree)

    I can't tell the difference between Blu Ray or normal DVDs and I doubt I'd even give a fuck if there was a difference.

    Well it's just as Biff said, it's mainly to do with the sound quality, yet they all promote picture quality.

    And it's what, like an extra 10-20$ for a bluray disc?

    Honestly i dont blame bob b/c they will probably still make the DVD's and their players for even a while after blu ray steals the spotlight.

    They actually just learned DvD's can store like 7x more on them using a certain method, so I doubt DvD's will be going away anytime soon.

    Not every blu-ray DVD has better picture quality, a lot of older movies still look the same, however there are a few that look fantastic.
