 @colorblindcowboy That makes sense, and I'm glad to hear rentals are still an option. I don't buy a lot of movies, but I do invest in favorite TV series as I like to revisit them now and then. I'm currently debating whether to buy Star Trek: TNG on Blu-Ray. I bought a second hand complete set on DVD, but the Blu-Ray version has been remastered. Judging from sample screen images, it's a major improvement over the old broadcast copies. 5 comments
@colorblindcowboy You can see some sample comparisons on Amazon user reviews. The colors sparkle and some effects have apparently been improved. Someone said the episodes are letter-boxed, which I'm fine with.  @analogfusion but that means they cropped the top/bottom or utilized off-scene footage. Curious. Iβll have to take a look at how they did. @colorblindcowboy It's possible I'm misinformed. As long as I get all the footage in high-res, I'll be happy. :) @analogfusion Itβs like weβre in the reverse of the old pan-scan days when movies were reformatted for small screens. |

@analogfusion Oh yeah? Iβd be curious to see the quality difference. I suppose I can see on YouTube. I hope they left the aspect ratio the same. Iβve seen some shows change it, and use a variety of different tech to adjust.
