I dont appreciate quality?  How wrong you are, you dont know me, you couldnt be MORE wrong. The cars I drive, the things I own and my last tell a very different story. But I won't be roughed by manufacturers peddling their wares.

Blu ray version of a movie such as....say "the big lebowski" doesn't improve the movie or the experience one iota. Constantly rebuying many older movies in new formats in the future will be  folly and frankly a con by the manufacturers.

There are some poor Blu-Rays but you should see a big difference with the majority of them. There are some specific ones that have been remastered very well and look absolutely amazing, like Saving Private Ryan. Just check reviews online if you're concerned about the quality.

I don't exactly see how rebuying older movies in newer formats is a "con".

I agree, but it is best to be selective.  I have re-purchased a few where I thought it would be worth it... Alien trilogy, Close Encounters directors cut and others.  Of course if I buy a new movie now (I dont often) then it is always a blu-ray.

Yous should check out Blu-Ray.com they post reviews of all the blu rays (often a week or 2 before the new ones even come out) and they rate the Audio,Picture quality and speical features out of 5 stars. Just type a movie into the search bar and check the ratings

Also i thought the Alien trilogy was worth the blu upgrade? you gotta remember that shits 30 years old, theres only so much they can do
