Some Blu-ray movies are stunning, some are merely fantastic, and others are hard to tell the difference from their DVD counterparts.

I wouldn't lower myself to watching a torrent sourced movie, I'd rather wait and watch it in the best quality my hardware can display it at.

I wish I was rich enough to pay $30 for a movie I'm only going to watch once or twice. So I'm guessing you've got a good home theatre system as well?

HD-DVD died man.

lol, oh fuck, noone told me... the movies are bloody cheap though, got 14 of them for under $100... better than $400+ for the blu-ray versions

It's called hiring them out. $5 for a new release Blu Ray at my local. And what system is complete without a decent HT setup?

Eh? Blu Ray titles sell from $30 upwards.

Bigbossman - Ignore all the arguments - nice site and I hope it is successful for you.

I dunno, torrent sourced blu ray movies contain same info don't they, at bout 7 gig each you would hope so anyway!. But I agree some movies just aren't worth blu-ray, massivly CG ones generally are, Avatar, Transformers 1 & 2 etc.

I assumed he was referring to compressed movies, I sure couldn't afford the cost of down-loading full quality Blu-ray movies. My $40 a month would only get me one 7GB file.....

I don't have a Blu-ray player, But I did borrow one and run a number of movies concurrently through my DVD player and the Blu-Ray player to do a direct comparison.. Next time I'm buying electronic equipment a Blu-ray player is on the list.

It would pay to wait a while and buy a blu-ray burner for your computer, once prices come down a bit. That is assuming you have a big enough monitor to enjoy it properly...

My 50" HD Plasma is run by a media PC in the lounge, My dedicated home theatre built in the shed has a projector running off a media PC, and my everyday PC is running a 22" LCD.

So I should be right

Nice rigs ya got there. I just got hold of a free home theatre system, so I disconnected the rear speakers and centre speaker, and put a nice 12" sub in. Sounds bloody awesome, more bass than any standard home theatre I've heard.

Thanks brother bastard bikers, we've got some nice stuff coming up on the site and we'll be starting a forum in the near future. I'm going to have a sub-section at some stage for bike reviews.
If I can't afford to buy one, why not ride donated ones.
Hit list: BMW 1000RR, Aprilia RSV-4, Honda CBR1000 etc. And the odd Motard & 'general' purpose bike.
I've been contacted by the PR company responsible for Victory motorcycles - it would be my first Harley-esque ride...

BBM - out.

Just for the record, Your avatar has always creeped me out.

Well done.
