Current HD media gives you more efficient video compression codecs plus more space and bandwidth for the compressionist to work with. Good enough for a lot a people to consider the result "transparent" to the Master video tape (Hah !).

When a better HD format comes out, I'll come a looking. I doubt it's going to happen for quite a while. And when it does, it might be too good. I suspect the Studios will hesistate to release perfect digital copies of their movies to the public.
