Factors like TV size, Viewing distance, hardware, drive space restrictions and a plethora of other concerns are all valid. It is a topic a lot of people are very passionate about.

Blu Ray has been around for a while now, and it started to feel like time to try again with this new technology. In my experience, the damn things were so unwatchable that I swore I would never buy another one again. You start watching them, get relaxed and into the story, and when you least expect it they skip or freeze.
