One question, one poll, separate topics.

One question:

Can someone explain to me why I should get a Blu-Ray player, and why Blu-Ray is better than not? I'm not going to be buying one anytime soon (no money for either the player or the HDTV I understand it's only worth buying a Blu-Ray player for), but I would like to understand why it's better.

I understand tech-talk, so don't be afraid to use big words, big numbers, and intialisms.

It's the resolution between the two. The resolution on the blu-ray is significantly better. While watching the Torchwood blu-ray dvd's you can see John Barrowman's pours.... Sometimes this can be a good thing other times it can be a bad thing.

Cnet has a quick about blu-ray vs dvd (http://reviews.cnet.com/4520-13817_7-6462511-2.html)
