Angry Dtv

as if the HDVD/blu ray switch wasn't inconvienance enough; it is estimated that by 2009 the change from analog broadcasting to digital will begin. so what does this mean? with over 20mil in traditional cable subscribers relting on over air signals television viewing will be affected; as well as subscribers of sattelite services who recieve over air sigs. on secondary units (tv sets). in order to aid in the transition a transition campaign website has been launched (www.DTVtransition.org)


so how does this relate to the topic? by the end of this year consumers will no longer have to choose between compeating formats as Samsung (first with the blu ray player) will issue a dual-format high-def player. this system will fully support HDVD as well as blu ray.



not really sure whether this solves the problem or makes it worse; i honestly feel a new format was unnecessarily presented with the overall acceptance of DVD. only time will tell which format is accepted by the public.

I'll wait and see which side Criterion falls under. Hi Def may give you the sharpest picture, but if you're watching an old movie with a less that great transfer, every little imperfection in that film print is going to show up crystal clear. Criterion has the best DVD picture quality, so I can't imagine them not having the best next-gen picture quality as well.
