Another reason to skip Blu-ray. The upcoming Digital Entertainment System promises a picture better than HD, better than even the 1080p that keeps Blu-ray fans raving.

The system will supposedly supply movies in the DCI (Digital Cinema Initiative) color standards recently adopted by most Hollywood studios and distributors. The movies would be delivered on hard drives to homes with special gear for playing them, including high-end projectors from Italian maker Sim2.

No price announced yet. But if you have to ask...

It all comes back to viewing distance. The higher the resolution the bigger the screen can be. It wont make it any more life like. That is in the hands of the 3D gods!!

Watching a bluray movie at BestBuy, the clarity was almost distracting on a good 240hz TV. I don't know how it can get better than that. I'd love to be a tester of that type of gear.

Cant they just stick with blu-ray I mean thats all they ever do is make more technology. They released HD DVD and Blu-ray and its mest up the Xbox 360 as its in HD DVD and it looks like no ones going with HD DVD everyones going Blu-ray so in the start could they not have tested what was better and what all companies would go with instead of releasing them both and making a lot of confusion I dont even see why HD DVD is still available. My words to everyone stick to dvd or go Blu-ray I Just hope they arent anoying enough to take something else out after Blu-ray. Also if youre considering getting a Blu-ray or dvd player make sure you get a multi region one as some dvd's and Blu-ray disks are only available on certain regions.
