Damn you BBC...
« on: Tue, 09 June 2015, 05:00:00 »
So,  they released a nice little documentary a while back, "Wild China" on Bluray

The first printing came with episodes 1-3 on a BD25 with VBR 1080i/60,   and 4-6 on a BD50 with CBR 1080i/60

Obviously the second disk had much better quality and clearer picture.


NOW.... now....  They released another printing,  Both are BD50s now, higher bitrate..  NICE..   BUTTTT....  now it's only 1080i/50 and there's a weird line artifact on the Left edge of the screen in some scenes..

LIKE wtf.....

This indicates you may have a pr0n-addiction.

Ah but you also appear to have jumped to the same conclusion about what I said. This indicates that we may have something in common.

I know what I know primarily through research on the subject..

Though I do not deny utilization of -fiction- on occasion.

Dude... is that the documentary where they fish with trained birds with string tied around their necks? That was nuts.

Damn they are cheap!

I get that iTunes is taking a cut to account for the extra expense... but it still bothers me that a digital copy is more expensive than a physical disk having to be burned + case + artwork printing + packing + shipping.

The only reason CD's are so expensive compared to vinyl was because the new technology was so expensive, but the prices of CD's barely went down and the jump to digital has seen them rise, yet the record industry still cries about streaming serves and pirates making them homeless...

it's brilliant when you think about it all

How is 8.49 gbp  cheap?

For a full TV series? It's pretty much £10 for just a full length movie.
Can we get them to build the Alps ten feet higher and get Cherry to pay for it?

It's 8.49 gbp for 300 minutes..   but I still don't see how that's cheap, considering it came out in 2008

Planet Earth is 550 minutes, was released a year earlier, is 3GBP more expensive.

It's a good price.
