When it comes to high quality audio and video, Blu-rays are the future.

Blu-ray is the term that describes the latest technology in optical discs. Blu-ray discs are the most recent format being used to watch film and television is superior high definition and never-heard-before surround sound.

Blu-rays were developed by the leading consumer electronics brands across the world, and is increasingly taking over the way people watch movies in their own home. The amazing technology provides the viewer with superior surround sound, crystal clear colours and life-like pictures that provide an ultimate video experience in 1080p.

Why should I swap to Blu-rays?

Anyone who enjoys watching movies can greatly benefit by swapping from DVD to Blu-ray. The quality of a movie in Blu-ray format is six times that of DVD when used with a High Definition Television, known as 1080p. Pictures are shown more concisely, with far more clarity, richer textures and vivid colouring.

The sound is also another selling point. With Blu-ray, you can utilise up to 7.1 channels of highly defined surround sound for a truly flawless audio experience. Sounds are deeper and more perfect than any existing surround sound system could ever offer.

And apart from being capable of displaying movies and playing sound in better quality than ever previously available, Blu-rays can even be used in your own home for optimum optical disc storage.

Blu-ray discs can store up to 50 GBs of data on a double layer disc, which is more than five times the storage capacity of the humble DVD. As a result, Blu-ray discs are able to offer much more interactive features, more bonus content, more extras than anything ever before.

Blu-ray is also the most durable of the optical disc family, as it has a unique hard coating that makes it scratch, dust and fingerprint resistant.
