Cable HDTV Special Offers For New Jersey

Blu-Ray and Hi-Def Television: A Unbeatable Combination


When HDTV sets first started cropping up on the market in 1998 folks were dazzled at the sharpness HD offered over standard television sets. Since that time millions of men and women have bought new televisions to take advantage of wide screen pictures with DVDs and high definition cable and satellite programming. While many folks still haven't made the jump, a recent technology discovery has made even HDTV backers take notice. Developed by Sony, Blu-Ray has pushed TV quality to the next level. Just a few years gone, nobody knew what format would become the successor to DVD, but now Blu-Ray has won and I'll tell you why you should consider adding Blu-Ray to your home entertainment system.


Though research started almost a decade ago, Sony and its partners did not manufacture a final commercial product till mid 2006. The name Blu-Ray comes from the blue laser that is used to read information from a Blu-Ray formatted disc. This conflicts with the red laser utilized to scan standard DVD discs. Yet why is Blu-Ray better than existing DVD formats? Even though Blu-Ray discs and players don't appear any different than normal DVDs, they can save much more information meaning sharper picture, improved audio, and more special extras. DVDs can hold up to eight gigs of information while Blu-Ray discs can hold fifty gigabytes. Quite a difference. The maximum resolution of a DVD is 720x480 lines whereas Blu-Ray has a maximum of 1920x1080 (also referred to as full hi-def). If you've spent $1000 or more on a 1080p TV, you're essentially not exploiting everything the TV can deliver when watching standard DVDs.


Originally costs for Blu-Ray players were far above what an average user wished to spend. Price tags between $700 and $1000 were not unusual for the first Blu-Ray players. And, there was another competing standard on the store shelves that made lots of bewilderment. Toshiba and NEC produced their own DVD follow-up device with release of the HD DVD standard. HD DVD, with a capacity of 15 gbs., was an improvement over standard DVDs but didn't equal the specs of Blu-Ray. However HD DVD did have some market advantages. First, HD DVD was on store shelves three months before Blu-Ray. Second, HD DVD devices where a little less expensive to produce and had a cheaper price tag as a result. Finally, HD DVD had more movie studios on board at launch than Sony did which meant more movies were initially available while Blu-Ray stayed rare.


Sony had one big ploy up their sleeve that quite possibly saved Blu-Ray from a Betamax destiny. Sony incorporated a Blu-Ray player into their highly anticipated PlayStation three and sold the entire device cheaper than many stand alone players were going for at the time. Quickly, Blu-Ray started making strides until soon it outsold HD DVD 2-to-1 by late 2007. More and more movie studios started to commit to the Blu-Ray standard exclusively, beginning with Warner Brothers in early 2008. Straight after Toshiba stopped making HD DVD players and recorders. By the end of 2008 rental corporations Netflix and Blockbuster, as well as major retail outlets, announced they would no longer carry HD DVD movies. Now all major studios release their films on Blu-Ray. A couple have continued to produce HD DVD and Blu-Ray releases simultaneously.


Prices have fallen seriously during the last few years also. Many name brand Blu-Ray players from firms like Panasonic and LG can easily be found between $150 and $250. Blu-Ray disc recorders are in the $200 - $400 range and dropping just as fast. For anyone that likes watching films from home and has already invested in an HDTV, now is a great time to look into adding a Blu-Ray player to your home entertainment system. Even those that might be skeptical about Blu-Ray's improvements over DVD owe it themselves to go down to their local home entertainment store and ask for a Blu-Ray demonstration. The picture clearness and audio fidelity from Blu-Ray is really outstanding.
