You'll get no argument from anyone on that point ( i think). I'm a tv editor and so professionally I work with pristine HD imagery every day but in my home environment I find no need to replicate what I see at work because I primarily watch programs through my hd cable box and that as you probably know is highly compressed 720. I'm all for the improvement of picture quality. I can't begin to tell you how happy tv professionals are to finally be rid of standard def imagery. But enjoy the blu ray while it's still around cause I think it's lifespan will be quite short. convenience always seems to trump over quality. the beta vs vhs battle of the 80's is a great example. My cable box (and downloads/streaming in the future) is/will be more convenient than physical discs. and I think the same could be said of mp3's vs cd's. -- exile ------------------------------------------------------------------------ exile's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4579 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=50035 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
