Two Alba movies among the first to show up on Blu-ray Discs

[jale]

Fox has said that Fantastic Four will be among the studio's first 20 titles to be released later this year in high definiton video on Blu-ray Discs. Checking the displayed titles at CES it looks like Into the Blue will also be among the first titles from Sony/MGM:


I can't wait to see Alba in 1920x1080p resolution [img]graemlins/goofy.gif[/img]

I'm a tech idiot, you know, so forgive me when I ask what that means? Another special edition for me to rue? Are they better quality like HD or what?

here .. basically it's the next generation media... CD [700MB] -> DVD [up to 9GB with dual layer] -> Blu-Ray [25GB/50GB with dual layer] (or HD-DVD as a competitor). And yeah, you'll need a new player too. ;)

Oh and HDTV is better than DVD quality (if any of you have never noticed)... so these discs' capacity allow HD quality.

BTW, have any of you heard whether Blu-Ray or HD-DVD has come out on top yet or is Sony just doing their own thing anyway ?

I'm worse than Al Bundy when it comes to moving into modern technology. Although I was buying DVD's when they were battling DIVX for supremacy so I guess I was ahead of that curve (I also bought VHS instead of Betamax so my gut wasn't on the wrong side of home entertainment at least 2 times). And I do own a PDA now, even though I don't know how to use half the things it can do. I guess the price of it all angers me from video games to computers to TV's. You throw down ~$2K for something that goes obsolete in two to three years. It's a conspiracy, I tell you!

That sucks that you need a new player.
