Is there much difference between a DVD and a Blu-Ray?

Is the extra price worth it? And note that I DONT have a Blu-Ray Player. Yet. So should I get a Blu-Ray Player and Blu-Ray movies, or just buy DVD's?

in my opinion if you have a dvd player with an upconverter, the picture quality doesn't change too much, blu-ray is still an improvement. The sound quality is where blu-ray excels. If you don't have surround sound you wouldn't notice the sound improvements though.

Do you have a HDTV?

DVD is standard def, BluRay is 1080. Same difference as going from SD to HD.

Try watching the standard def version of ABC, CBS, NBC, etc. tonight. Watch for a good 20 minutes to get used to the SD picture. Then mid show - switch to the HD version. This will show you the difference between DVD and BluRay.
