Have you gone BLU? Do you buy Blu-rays instead of DVDs now?

I have been reviewing films for quite sometime now on various websites, and have had many people commenting on them and how good they were, so I am making a blog and calling myself the DIGICRITIC.

I would really appreciate it if you voted on my new blog, with no reviews in at the moment but loads in the near future.

The question I'm asking is have you to Blu-ray, I have and I love it, please vote here- http://digicritic.blogspot.com/, and if you want explain why you have/'nt switched, all votes would be appreciated.

I started buying Blu-ray Discs in 2006, taking advantage of the sales that were on during the format war. I now have around 125 of them.

The difference is incredible. I find it hard to even watch DVD's now, but my Blu-ray upconverts so those that I do want to watch it's no problem - I don't need to replace my entire DVD collection, only the ones I really love like Close Encounters. No doubt when movies like Gladiator, Jurassic Park, Back to the Future, etc., come out on Blu-ray I'll replace those too.

It's only $100 more than a good upconverting DVD player right now to get into Blu-ray anyway, and the difference in prices on Amazon for new release titles is within a couple bucks, so if you've got an HDTV there's very little reason to not get a Blu-ray players. You can get them at Wal*Mart now for under $299 and before Christmas they'll be $199.

I love Blu-ray just for the increase in sound. It's so nice to finally watch action movies with an uncompressed or lossless soundtrack.

Ive seen high def content but im not ready to buy any blu0ray films just yet.
Last time i checked they were like £15-£20 compared to the £3 dvd counterparts.
Sure they look nice but i dont see it paying off.
In another year or so ill probably start my collection.
