Not quite sure I agree with some of this, I do buy Blu if at all possible, but a lot of my dvd's play great through the blu-ray player, and I have no intention of up-grading them. I watch my films on a 10 foot wide screen, so any faults are very apparent. Some Blu discs I have are not as good as the dvd versions, Curse of Frankenstein, and Brides of Dracula spring to mind, they are dreadful transfers on Blu disc. So my back is not turned on dvd at all, it all boils down the the source materials used, and some blu discs of late have been awful.
