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 859 Views
I've only watched the first two series. - 27/03/2012 05:42:47 PM 504 Views
I intend to, at some point. Though as Stephen notes, the DVDs are expensive. *NM* - 27/03/2012 06:13:04 PM 229 Views
People buy DVDs? I thought everything was streaming or Blu-Ray now. - 27/03/2012 06:15:07 PM 548 Views
Also, I think they're streaming on Netflix *NM* - 27/03/2012 06:18:12 PM 272 Views
I'm still hoping Blu-Ray will go the way of the betacam. - 28/03/2012 10:38:22 PM 614 Views
It won't. - 29/03/2012 01:29:52 AM 550 Views
I don't watch my DVDs on a TV. *NM* - 30/03/2012 08:52:27 PM 246 Views

Yes, I just assumed 1080p. - 31/03/2012 05:55:13 AM 532 Views
What type of monitor are you using? - 31/03/2012 05:11:38 AM 634 Views
I also refused to take this step for a long time - 29/03/2012 03:46:59 PM 675 Views
No you don't. - 30/03/2012 01:40:57 PM 785 Views

It was Mad Men being Mad Men, albeit funnier than usual. - 27/03/2012 11:07:18 PM 599 Views
That's true. - 28/03/2012 12:00:36 AM 588 Views
I'm not surprised about the ratings. - 28/03/2012 01:18:34 AM 588 Views
I do - 28/03/2012 12:51:11 AM 689 Views
I've only checked out the first couple of episodes. - 28/03/2012 05:30:25 AM 605 Views
I watched the pilot. - 28/03/2012 02:04:17 PM 654 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 272 Views
Totally. *NM* - 30/03/2012 08:55:47 PM 240 Views
Word. *NM* - 30/03/2012 09:34:31 PM 239 Views
Didn't they cancel that show after 3 episodes or something? *NM* - 30/03/2012 11:40:57 PM 235 Views
Not quite, but it does appear to be cancelled - 31/03/2012 05:06:45 AM 743 Views
Aw. Oh well. It wasn't exactly the best show ever, granted. *NM* - 31/03/2012 02:00:06 PM 244 Views
A while before X-mas, one of the leads... - 31/03/2012 03:38:33 PM 653 Views
