360 could add a blu ray drive and was rumored to do it. They just haven't. Not really worth the cost now.
Wii isn't in the full entertainment market. Last edited by Trip; 12-09-2009 at 09:53 AM.. |

![]() blu-ray won out over HD-DVD, as others have said downloading movies is where the ind. will goto. so what are you saying? and theoretically since everything is digital, it's either good or bad ? same w/ $5 cables vs $100 cables ?

The reason I bought this particular Blu-ray is because my TV is a Samsung. After reading some of the reviews...should I start having issues with it I will buy a different brand next time but again...so far...so good. I watched Gladiator last night which is almost a 3 hour movie with no issues. |

There are differences between cables as well. Its just like everything else. Yes the $5 cable will still make sound/video but is it the same quality. No. |

There are no DVD players that will outperform a fully capable Blu-ray player, at any cost. Regardless of how much is spent on the player the DVD itself is limited to a native resolution of around 720x480. That signal can be upconverted, upscaled, or whatever else they want to call it but that is just filling in resolution "holes" with data that doesn't exist on the disk. DVD is also limited to 5.1 channel compressed audio. Blu-ray runs up to 7.1 channels and also uses no compression for the audio signal. |

Look in one of the recent TIGGER threads for a discussion of cables. If it is a digital signal we are talking about (HDMI) there is no difference between the $5 cable and the $100 cable as long as they are both producing picture and sound. Digital being what it is, if the signal is getting from one end of the cable to the other it will be exactly the same no matter how much the cable cost.
