I sent my orignal copy of The Fifth Element in and received the remastered version as well.  100% improvement over the previous master.  I hope they do a similar exchange program for Stargate, that us another movie that was mastered very badly.  In any case, as someone else said, those are mastering issues, not format specific issues…  Much like the…

Boy are you grasping at straws. That movie was re mastered. I sent my original copy back to Sony and they sent me a new one. Complete with A new Dolby TruHD sound track. We all know the quality capability of Blu-ray is as good or better than HD DVD. Blu-ray has the ability to offer higher bit rates than…

Dan, You say “I just want the best picture and audio quality. And right now Blu-ray is it.” Then don’t watch “The Fifth Element” on Bluray because that looks horrible. Sony should be ashamed to call that a High Definition release.

Please, this is the worst article on cost i have ever read. For 5 grand I built a killer system with a 61"DLP, 7.2 surround, Upconverting DVD player, under seat bass shakers with money to spare!

I see your point. But I can’t copy standard DVD so I don’t expect to have the ability to copy Blu-ray either. I know too many people that would give a copy to a friend or relative if it was easy. So I can see Hollywood’s position. I’m not comparing picture/Audio quality between HD formats. I’m comparing quality between downloads…

Yep, you can do much better with a bit of research and tips found at places like AVS.  I did a completely-from-scratch room with acoustically transparent Cinemascope screen (speakers behind screen), 7.1 surround, HD DVD, HDTV and 12 foot wood bar for just over $12,000, including all furnishings.

A typical $10K installation would include: - 1080p projector - 92” fixed screen - good 5.1 sound (Denon/Canton, not HTIB) - RF remote fully programmed - Blu-Ray or HD-DVD player - complete installation and calibration - basic lighting control This package would be installed in an existing room, and would include all equipment, plus professional installation…

I always wondered what happened to the people who “discovered” the weapons of mass destruction. I thought they got a job working for OJ looking for “the real killer” but in fact they went into the Home Theater Cost Analysis business. This is one of the most absurdly inaccurate and misleading pieces I have ever read.  I suppose the guys…

sorry about the few typos in my last post
