First look at TF1 Blu-Ray Live.

[griffin]

I'd think that the Blu-Ray release here would include this bonus feature, so here is an advance look at the Live Guide insert that will come with the US Blu-Ray release in September. (BD-Live is online access to bonus materials to download to your BR player)

Looks like I'm going to need a BR Player soon...

Blue Ray still doesn't have me convinced. Their library is still too small and although the quality is notably greater than DVD, it doesn't call for upgrade.

I guess that is ok for people who were suckered in by the PS3

It's also a more expensive medium to buy. HD-DVD was a cheaper medium but instead of exploiting this positive they thought they'd screw the average person, in the end I think this cost them.

I have a PS3 that I bought over a year ago but still haven't opened...

It's a mild upgrade mostly made available to re-introduce the draconian locks that Hollywood adores so greatly. That being said, if you have a big fat flat screen, the difference is noticeable, but I'll stick with DivX on my 24" for the time being... simply on principle.

I'm on the fence about Blu. I got some HD DVDs but rather than putting in the disc and watching the movie like I should have I was always looking at how awful it looked on screen.

It is my monitor, but still ..

I don't know ether if they are guessing, or they have the wrong details etc...

But, this site has a pre-order up for it

i wonder if they have picture in picture yet. If had the transformers movie on hd dvd for the past year or so, and i must say it's probably going to be better than the blu-ray version. blu-ray is still very behind with interactive features as compare to hd dvd.

Does anyone how the player connects online and how secure it is?

well im not surprised that someone who watches illegally downloaded movies isnt going to buy into blu ray.
