As I understand it the new Blue Ray system is based on 1080p for its advancement in picture quality.
I have a few years old Sony 60" LCD that outputs 1080i or 720p ,but, NOT 1080p. I should state that the picture quality with my present equipment with Hi Def sources is great.
I am sort of interested in a Blue Ray player. The Player cost seem reasonable, but I am still on the fence about the cost of the Blue Ray discs.
I have never received a straight answer as to the video improvement with my present equipment using a Blue Ray player and Blue Ray discs from the adolescences who work at the local Electronics stores.
So, here are the 2 questions...
1. Will there be any Video improvement with using a Blue Ray player and Blue Ray discs with equipment that cannot output 1080 P?
2. If there is an improvement is it 90% 50 % 25% or whatever?
The picture will be signicantly more clear with Blue Ray. The sound will be a lot better based on your your equipment capabilities. BD will be more clear/vivid/sharper but the difference is relative, some standard DVD's have very good picture and sounds whilst some are not..
I should have said as well....I second using Netfix with Blu Ray rather than buying BD's. Unless you have a kid/kids that watch the same stuff over an over...or you like a movie that much where you need to see it multiple times. but then again just order it again through Netflix, you get the movie in a day or two...
