If your TV is UNDER 46inches, Do Not Buy Blu-Ray Movies, there is no need.

DVD's are fine With-Out Upscale on 46inch TV's and below.

Like stated above the PS3 upscales DVD's that look almost identiacl to BR's on even a 54inch, I know, I own a 54inch and did not see a diffrence with my DvD compaired to BR of Talladega Nights (came with PS3), only BR I owned.

 

I haven't seen Talladega Nights, so I can't say what the quality is on that specific movie, but....  This is so untrue.  I have a 56" 1080p DLP and a 32" 720p LCD, and there is a huge difference on my DLP, and a very noticable difference on my LCD (between BR and upscaled).  Saying a non-upscaled dvd looks the same as a blu-ray at 46" is ridiculous.

Anyways, personally I haven't purchased a DVD (besides some tv shows) since I bought my PS3.  There is a quality difference, you just have to decide if it is worth it to pay more.  Nobody can really make that decision for you.

Oh, and at the OP, why on earth would you pay $30-40 for blu-rays, or $15-20 for DVD's.

 

 

Sorry but saying an Upscale-DvD on a 46inch looks the same as BR on a 46inch, is not Ridiculous.


Blu-ray on a 46inch and lower is a waste of money, plain and simple.

The whole reason why you get Blu-Ray and 7.1ss is to have the best of the best, throw in a small tv and you just screwed the whole setup.

 

Did you read my post?  I specifically said a non-upscaled DVD looking the same as a Blu-ray on a 46" is ridiculous.  Which it is.  But saying an upscaled DVD looks the same as a blu-ray on a 46" is also ridiculous.  Unless for some reason you are talking about an SDTV, there is a noticeable difference on HD sets.  Like I said, I can easily see the difference on a 720p 32" TV.  So I am sure I could see it on a 46" 1080p TV.  Why are you trying to come off as an expert when you yourself said your only experience with Blu-Ray was watching Talladega Nights?  Also as someone else said, this movie came out in Blu-Ray's infancy, and even then it got low ratings for image quality, despite lower standards at the time.
