available on HD video formats. The existing compromises with 25G and 30G discs suggest to me movies which take advantage of Blu-ray 50G disc bandwidth and storage capacity provide the best possible AQ and PQ which I feel is necessary to help separate HD video from DVD. The HD-DVD mantra of "good enough" just isn't good enough IMHO. But then again, I'm shooting for the very best video/audio from the currently available video formats which perhaps unfortunately separates me from your average consumer.
Anyone posting on this forum should already have an interest in the best possible audio quality for their home audio systems. They should also be interested in the best possible audio and video quality for their Home Theater systems. Blu-ray does the best job of and has the highest potential of delivering the best possible AQ and PQ capable of today's Hi-def video consumer formats. That is, until the next generation Ultra HD formats with Terabyte portable/hard drive/holographic/?? media becomes available.
