Are DVD’s Soon To Be Extinct?
Although everything is said to be in HD, the only true way to watch a high definition movie is with a Blu-ray player. Even though many enjoy the picture quality of a DVD, as it is much better than the VHS quality that we grew up with, the technology of a Blu ray player is by far superior.
Broadcast television and streamed television from the Internet are shown in 1080i, which is not true high definition. For the clearest, picture and the clearest sound, you have to watch it on Blu-ray. Blu-ray is the only true high definition experience that is clear as can possibly be.
Going from DVD to Blu-ray is the same as when you changed from VHS tapes and to DVD. Blu-ray is quickly becoming the popular choice for those that desire the highest quality for home entertainment. With the exception of PS3, it has sold more players, in the first two years, then DVDs did when they were first released.
The movies have outsold DVD as well. This is due to it’s amazing picture quality and crystal clear sound on a high definition television and with surround system. Blu-ray players have become very affordable and the movies are at the original price points that DVDs started out at.
Video rental stores have already started making Blu-rays available for purchase and rental. This makes it easier for people to watch the movies without having to buy every single one of them that they want to watch. When DVDs first released, it was very hard to find a store that would rent them and I think that because they were hard to find that way, it kept people from wanting to invest in the new technology. But with the Blu-ray, the manufactures and retail stores and rental stores know that they have a built in consumer base to move this technology ahead.
