BluRay Gets A Boost from Blockbuster

[Galleleo]

I have build up such a nice collection of DVD's and then I have to switch to Blue Ray or HD DVD and the covers don't match so it looks all ugly..

Damn technology.

if not, a good upscaling dvd player would be where id start, i wholeheartedly recommend the Oppo-DV981HD, has the best upconverted picture ive seen from standalone players with built in scalers, and its not the most expensive.

I've read good things about Oppo. I'm just going to wait for the next generation and DL stuff that looks just as good or better in the meantime.

Got the Dish Network hooked up yesterday. HD + DVR for less than my analog Comcast subscription. Even after 10 months and the price goes back to normal, the HD Dish will still be about the same as the analog Comcast. The best part is the Dish DVR outputs to multiple TVs so you can watch recorded shows on any TV. Pretty smart solution.

Oh, and HBO free for 3 months. Who needs DVD players...
