Home Video Asylum

TVs, VCRs, DVD players, Home Theater systems and more.

In this case, CR is absolutely right

I saw an impromptu comparison of both formats at a local high end video room using 2001: A Space Odyssey with current entry level players (Toshiba A3, Sony BD300), display was a Panasonic 50" 1080p plasma. Both formats looked spectacular, period-it was clear that both formats brought out the maximum detail of an excellent transfer with no discernable qualitative difference between either. All this quibbling about things like disc carrying capacity, etc. is just so much format fanboy blather, IMO-if your primary interest is in seeing your favorite films and television programs in the best possible light, either one will do just fine.
