Blu Ray only brings better sound/picture. Nothing else. Nothing. DVD's are still fine. And getting one season of a tv show on one disc is only convenient if you are too weak and flabby to change discs. Blu Ray, more like ass ray. I hope it rots in hell. Along with rich people. I also highly doubt any poor people have HDTV's. I had hoped this recession would kill off Blu Ray & HD but alas.
First of all, blu-ray also can't be scratched (unlike DVDs and HD-dvds), and they also have a lot more space.
Secondly, what the hell do you have against rich people? Are you at a library to get online? You aren't that poor...
Well, in correction, Blu-rays can be scratched, they have a protective coating and are just harder to scratch in theory (I say in theory, because I haven't tried to scratch one of my $30 Blu-rays to make sure)
As for your second comment, spot on.
Okay, so they can be scratched.. glad I didn't test one of mine out!
Either way, my point was the word "CAN'T" is far fetched. Nothing is fail proof.
