Are you kidding me?
Have you listened to High Definition DVD?
Have you watched one on a good Hih definition set?
The picture and the audio is phenomenal!
Of course, it depends on what disc you are listening to.
Just as on SD DVD's, there are some terrible transfers, and on any HD-DVD or Blu-Ray, it depends on the mastering of a film, the type of film, etc...
There are plenty of fantastic transfers with incredible video and audio.
And comparing any of them to a standard DVD, is laughable!
Try watching one of these on a set-up where the sound and the high-def TV/monitor measures up to the source. Y
You'll be amazed.
Again, if you are listening on a sub-par system, maybe you cannot hear and see the difference.
I bought a Sony XBR4 46" set and an Onkyo 805 receiver. I have Cambridge Soundworks Newton series speakers, and I can tell you, no one watching or listening to my set-up would compare them to any standard DVD.
When a cell phone rings in a move, visitors to my place will often look around to see if their cell phone is ringing.
I've had people whirl their head in the direction of my back door when watching a horror movie and someone pounds on a door...
And as for music, try listening to some of the music Blu-Rays... truly amazing!
No, SD DVD does not measure up.
And it is completely ignorant to suggest it does... ]]> Thu, 28 Feb 2008 22:05:03 -0500 Now the naysayers are claiming people will not want a High Def format, and this new one posted on here about how the audio is not much better than SD DVD?
