And since we're making comparisons, let's talk about bit rate. With video that's been compressed, higher bit rates help eliminate artifacts and "noise" in moving images. So the action is cleaner, crisper and more realistic. Standard DVDs deliver a bit rate of up to 10 Mbps. The HDTV broadcasts you have come to love on your flat panel screen can reach up to an impressive 19 Mbps.
Blu-ray Discs positively scream at up to 48 Mbps! That's nearly five times the bit rate of the DVDs you're used to, and it greatly exceeds the bit rate of broadcast HDTV. No matter what you're watching, it will probably look better on a Blu-ray Disc.
