The technology that has driven LCD and Plasma TV’s is always getting better, these TVs are widely avaible in the high street abd can be found in some places you may not expect, the Debenhams LCD TV section quite suprised me but it goes to show they are every where, the HD revolution will continue until it is the normal standard, the limits to size of standard TV’s was down to the weight of a set the thickness of glass over the vacuum inside, with LCD and Plasma the limit is purely down to the ability to make one panel a certain size without loss of clarity and resolution, at the moment the biggest tv is 103in which is huge by any comparison. All modern sets are HD ready meaning they have the ability to show a high definition picture, the battle between HD and Blu-ray has a winner and it seems the standard will be Sony’s Blu-ray offering DVD’s with outstanding picture detail and clarity, the number of films being released on the Blu-ray format is increasing daily and although they are considerably more expensive to buy the prices are all ready dropping and at the moment are comparable with the first DVD discs approx £20.00 to £27.00.
There are many player available and I will not go into them today, the prices of players are coming down and are quite affordable and the quality including better features are getting better, now that the format war is over we are sure to see many more manufacturers bringing out out more and better models, this alone will start to drive the prices down and for the consumer this is always a good thing. The pairing of a Blu-ray player and HD TV, Plasma or LCD is a match made in heaven and no matter how someone describes the difference between HD and standard pictures the only way to actually grasp the enormous difference is to experience it yourself.
