there has been work on a standard dvd that holds 20 gig one side. but i expect downloads/ suplemented by dvd/blueray but only if blueray catches on by 2011
also when did the dvd player in the 360 start sucking i was unaware of this after watching hundreds of movies. |
I think it plays movies movies very poorly when compared to every other regular DVD player, upconverting DVD player, HD DVD player, or Blu-ray player that I own or have watched movies on.... too fuzzy for me to enjoy.

Ive never had a problem with fuzzyness. and have used all those except ps3 to play... mine out puts quite sharp on all three tvs i use sony 42 inch hd, aquas 60, and philips 47.
though im a trained graphic designer, i have a concetration in media arts, and know quite a bit about video quality and have the eye for it. so either you have a defective unit, there are multiple hardware suppliers for the upscale converter some better then others for the 360, or your full of it.
the best quality i got for dvds was computer out put through a quicktime codec upscaling to 720p (old computer could not push 1080p in realtime)

No need to get snippy about it really. Your first guess is more likely right, my first XBOX 360 that was used for movies was an early model release, so maybe they produced poorer quality? I don't know...
Either way, my best player Blu-ray player is my PS3 and my best upconverter is my Toshiba A-30. I don't care for my 360 to be used as a DVD player because it just doesn't work as well as my other dozen players in the house. Anyway, that's another debate for another thread.

not ment to be snippy i added it simply because some users are full of it... also it gave me a third option, always been taught o have 3.
my box is a first year unit.... one rrod on it (when i went for sd to hd had a 76 error aka gpu unseating) fixed, new MB since january dont know if its a revised or repaired MB but it is different with its new mac addy and all
