Blu ray movies rose very quickly in popularity. It's crazy to think it wasn't that long ago either that blu ray disc's were released. They bring a new sense of clarity and presentation to film like dvd's and certainly VHS never did.
Because the amount of HDTV's purchased was so high and is still growing in numbers since its release in 1998, people have been asking for a higher standard of disc to watch. The problem at the time was the quality of disc that was available. So, they started researching how to make something that was compatible with HD and also complimented it's beauty. But they also wanted to create something that was inexpensive. This was the start of the DVR-blu concept, which was coined shortly after as blu ray.
In 2000 at an exhibition, Sony-Phillips introduced for the first time the very first blu ray disc. Individuals loved the idea. The public was ready for the equivalent to their HD TVs and were excited for it to be introduced to the public. In April 2003, approximately three years later, the first device and blu ray disc was released to stores.
Among the very first titles to be rewritten and released on blu ray were 50 First Dates, The Terminator, Underworld: Evolution and the Fifth Element. The new and improved method to watch films excited people all around the globe.
In 2006, 1.6 million individuals were buying blu ray. Now, 177.2 million individuals prefer blu ray to the original dvd. Many studios are making the switch to only sell their movie's on blu ray since the numbers at this point are greater then the number of people purchasing dvd's back at their same point. Some are releasing a blu ray and dvd combo pack and are slowing dialing it down to just blu-ray while some are releasing flipper disc's which have dvd on one side and blu ray on the other. Renting of blu ray films is what is said to keep the cost for them lower, while having the number in releases expand.
Blue ray has even adapted to this new 3D age. They started producing their movies compatible for 3D film and 3D television. Playstation has even released the update for their game system's to play not only 3D film and tv, but also 3D games.
The 8cm mini blu ray are comparable to the mini-cd and mini-dvd. They don't hold as much information as the original sized blu ray discs but they're now compatible with camcorders and small recording devices. Now filming and downloading into a blu ray compatible drive is easier than ever!
The new way of viewing movies on blu ray has raised the excitement among everyone. People would agree that it's so clear and crisp and also the audio would make it seem you were in the action. The recommendation is to switch from dvd to blu ray as the times are bringing blu ray to the forefront.
