ok, got that out of my system. This has absolutely nothing to do with Sony or the PS3.
If I had an HDTV, I still wouldn't be interested in a bluray player until they are less than $200 and the movies are at most a few dollars more than the DVD's.
Instead I would buy an $80 dvd player with hdmi out and upconverting tech. Essentially the same thing in my eyes and that of the mass consumer. As evidenced by this report. |
In all honesty, I don't really care too much either except...
Planet Earth, it's just so gorgeous. An upconverting DVD player doesn't do it.
One of the main reasons why I need to replace my PS3 is that Doc.

You're absolutely correct with that. See, the regular DVD collection of Planet Earth ONLY has 150 minutes of actual footage, with Blu-Ray containing a whopping 550 minutes of footage! That's the only reason I would get a PS3 for, besides playing PS2 games I never got a chance to own or fully finished (I mentioned it on another thread).

I have the DVD collection of Planet Earth. It has 5 discs, with 2-3 episodes per disc, about 50 minutes per episode. Math tells me there's more than 500 minutes of footage (and what's "actual" footage anyway?).
