This is true with both formats. There is alot of mediocre titles, even recent ones. IMO, the majority are good, but not fantastic, by HD standards. Examples? BD- Perfet Stranger and Premonition. OK, but nothing fantastic. Die Hard 4 is good, but didn't make me go wow. It also had some banding. HD DVD- Tremors. It was good but has some edge enhancement. Next was mediocre. Dreck 3 was good (its kind of hard to do bad PQ for animation)but I expected better. I could go on, but you get the point.
While I do have a few real standouts in both formats, they are the minority of discs. That said, even mediocre HD is still much better than DVD.
