Blu Ray VS DVD

As the holiday season is upon us, I think now is the time for anyone that had been holding off on blu ray to make the switch. One main concern, one I had myself, is starting a new collection of movies. But is it worth it? Yes. Oh God, yes.

Blu ray brings three major improvements over DVD: superior image quality, superior sound quality and more storage which leads to more special features. With prices dropping for the price of blu ray players and discs, now is the time to do yourself a favor and join the blu ray club.

Some, such as DOS, are concerned that they would need to rebuild their movie collection all over again. But, this is not the case, as blu ray players still play your DVDs. Even upgrading their quality. So you are not starting over like you had to when you went from VHS to DVDs. You are just adding on to your collection. Sure, you can re-purchase some of your favorite movies on blu ray for extra features or if you absolutely want to see them in the improved quality, but its not necessary.

This year, give the gift of blu ray. Personally, I find it difficult going back to watching standard DVDs. If you have a high def television, it is silly not to jump on the blu ray wagon (cough*dos*cough). Do it.
