I was thinking how cool that would be to have a an entire season of some vintage TV series on one disc. An HD disc can be dual sided, holding a total of 60GB, but I don't know if two sided discs are permitted by BD's spec or even possible with its manufacturing process. So HD actually has a 10GB greater capacity per disc than BD, while BD has a 20GB greater capacity per side than HD. How this would work out in fitting material onto disc sides is anybody's guess, but I suspect that consumers would object strenuously to having to get up and flip a disc in the middle of a movie or episode. Also, the very *mention* of "TV on Blu-ray" will, within seconds, immediately cause fanboys to swoon over Blu-sky dreams of storage capability and gush "Wow, does that mean we could put the entire eleven-season run on Seinfeld on one disk?? @_@ " Ahem...well, now we got THAT out of our system. (Yeesh.) 9_9 The whole point of releasing titles on hi-def disks would be hi-def *masters* of the shows in 1080-- Haven't rented Sopanos or Lost, so don't know how the actual storage of HDTV mastered episodes works out, but still would be the same 3-4 hours per disk, even with multi or double-sided disks...Just upped the playing level, is all. Another argument where the Haves meet the Have-Nots in the HDTV debates about why we've got the technology in the first place. Derek Janssen ejanss1@verizon.net |
