Blu Ray is here to stay a while. Alas in a way, because its rather disappointing compared to full uncompressed HD, but even for the really good consummer grade TVs and screens, it's good enough (in a professional screening room, the difference between BR and the original source is rather unmistakable). There's still room for much technical improvement in the home market for it to catch up to the quality of the HD sources, but there's no way the MPAA and co. would even support the introduction of something better much better than BR on the consummer market in a foreseeable future.

I don't really care if it stays or not, as long as it doesn't push DVDs into oblivion. I suppose at least computers will keep being able to play DVDs for a good long while...

It really looks like no one watches Mad Men based on the absence of discussion. - 27/03/2012 02:44:01 PM 1144 Views
I've only watched the first two series. - 27/03/2012 05:42:47 PM 804 Views
I intend to, at some point. Though as Stephen notes, the DVDs are expensive. *NM* - 27/03/2012 06:13:04 PM 353 Views
People buy DVDs? I thought everything was streaming or Blu-Ray now. - 27/03/2012 06:15:07 PM 827 Views
Also, I think they're streaming on Netflix *NM* - 27/03/2012 06:18:12 PM 390 Views
I'm still hoping Blu-Ray will go the way of the betacam. - 28/03/2012 10:38:22 PM 875 Views
It won't. - 29/03/2012 01:29:52 AM 851 Views
I don't watch my DVDs on a TV. *NM* - 30/03/2012 08:52:27 PM 361 Views

Yes, I just assumed 1080p. - 31/03/2012 05:55:13 AM 812 Views
What type of monitor are you using? - 31/03/2012 05:11:38 AM 939 Views
I also refused to take this step for a long time - 29/03/2012 03:46:59 PM 945 Views
No you don't. - 30/03/2012 01:40:57 PM 1092 Views

It was Mad Men being Mad Men, albeit funnier than usual. - 27/03/2012 11:07:18 PM 918 Views
That's true. - 28/03/2012 12:00:36 AM 908 Views
I'm not surprised about the ratings. - 28/03/2012 01:18:34 AM 869 Views
I do - 28/03/2012 12:51:11 AM 979 Views
I've only checked out the first couple of episodes. - 28/03/2012 05:30:25 AM 937 Views
I watched the pilot. - 28/03/2012 02:04:17 PM 1000 Views
I've chosen to watch the much inferior Pan Am. Hey, at least they're hot. *NM* - 29/03/2012 10:06:48 PM 415 Views
Totally. *NM* - 30/03/2012 08:55:47 PM 362 Views
Word. *NM* - 30/03/2012 09:34:31 PM 358 Views
Didn't they cancel that show after 3 episodes or something? *NM* - 30/03/2012 11:40:57 PM 357 Views
Not quite, but it does appear to be cancelled - 31/03/2012 05:06:45 AM 1047 Views
Aw. Oh well. It wasn't exactly the best show ever, granted. *NM* - 31/03/2012 02:00:06 PM 369 Views
A while before X-mas, one of the leads... - 31/03/2012 03:38:33 PM 969 Views
