It's no contest. The only people who "can't tell the difference" are people who wanted HDDVD to win the format war.

 

Or people over 30 years old, or who don't have a HDTV, or who don't have a said HDTV over 40 inches, and who don't know much about electronics, computers, or television, making up about 96 percent of the population.

It certainly is no contest to me, but I'm smart, with great vision, and I know what I'm looking at. I've also spent thousands of dollars to ensure that I have the best picture possible.

To be honest, compared to the epic VHS-DVD upgrade...Blu-Ray is a crap update, and I'd love to see anyone argue against that, without sounding like a shill.

 

Let me guess. You prefer the 360 over PS3? Because people who always talk that "Bluray isn't that great" crazyness are almose exclusively 360 fanboys "360 is better I don't like bluray". I wonder, did you vote for Bush? I think you did.

Not that I normally reply to trolls, but:

I tend to find its the PS3 fanboys that keep saying the blu-ray is awesome, while the rest of the population doesn't really care.

Now I love the extra quality that blu-ray offers, but ZenfoldorVGI is dead on the money.

Plain and simple, blu-ray is not worth the upgrade for most people. DVD offered numerous advantages over VHS, where the only advantage blu-ray offers over dvd is higher resolution which many people can't see the difference, and better audio which most people can't hear the difference. And lets face it, higher resolution doesn't even add anything to 95% of the movies anyway.
