    YEAH, my Amc isn't HD either, but the entire series was in HD on ONDEMAND,
    thank the lord.
    I watch quite a few DVDS at work during downtime, and I spent extra for a portable
    (PANASONIC) that would play DIVIX, etc, up to 720p. Its nice.
    But nothing beats BLU. You won't watch a disc in BLU unless it resembles a video game,well, thats your loss.
    ONE of the best BLU discs I have seen is NICK and Nora, a love song to NEW YORK,
    basically, and it is beautiful. I don't need robots from the future( although I did a four
    movie Terminator marathon recently). Ben Button was rather amazing, also.
    Blu is the HT promise fulfilled, and the only reason your DVD is as tolerable as they are
    is they are deinterlaced and the pic is as good as possible.
    BUT THATS RECENT. The best thing about Blu is not what it contains, but what it leaves out.
    MOIRE PATTERNS, jagged diagonal lines, ghosting.
    I had a concert of SHERYL CROW, and the one thing even more annoying than her
    suburban haircut was her boom mike, which "jagged" in the middle. If that works
    for you , fine. I have a bunch of BLU discs, several are replacements for DVD,
    because I love movies and will only watch them in as pristine a condition as
    possible, because time spent watching a movie is time you don't get back, basically.
    Wizard of OZ came on recently, and I WAS AMAZED, TO SAY THE LEAST.
    My god, what they have done to this movie, which will be my next BLU disc, BTW.
    IF YOU CAN SETTLE for "DVD" then why did you waste money on the OPPO,
    is all I want to know.
