    and all they're gonna pack on it is outtakes, interviews, and other filler... and they still won't even use half the disc.


    From what I understand, audio (especially 7.1) takes up a lot - sometimes as much as video.

    seriously tho, a well recorded movie in standard def or basic 720p HD looks good projected on a wall. In truth, there was never a need for BR to begin with.


    BR is not just about movies.

    Yeah Blu-Ray is nice.


    I'm still happy buying old DVD's though. Not worth the extra money yet.

    As a storage medium, BR is great. 50GB on a single disc is good for near-term storage, though I still have my doubts about the shelf life of optical media over magnetic tape.
