Would you pay $5-$10 more for a Warner or Paramount Super bit 50GB disc? - Blu-ray Forum

The better picture was what HD was suppose to be about. Bought best tv and player, just need the movies. There would have to be an improvement in overall pq to justify the extra $ but willing to buy if its there.

i dont think we should have to pay any more than we already are for them to use up the full disc, but at the same time, u know most of us from the forums are willing. whats the max amount you'd pay for a 1 disc blu-ray movie...i think i mightve bought a few at $39.99 when i first bought my ps3 at bestbuy so i could get a few movies to go along. i bought planet earth thru the warner bro.'s website with that promo deal, but even retail, i'd say its worth $99.99!
ah, enough rambling

Currently so far what this poll has shown is that over 75% of movie collectors that voted would be willing to pay an extra $5-$10 for movies from Warner and Paramount that had the extra touch of quality that the HD-DVD format can not offer. We can only hope one day that Warner and Paramount fills up the 50GB discs with the highest bit rate possible for picture and sound quality. Having 5.1-7.1 PCM sound tracks with high bit rate MPEG-4/AVC or VC-1 has a market.

I would pay but these superbit discs should be the norm. I would be very upset if I had to pay $30-$40 anytime i wanted a movie

How about we all chip-in $5 to $10 and buy Universal and Warner.

Blu Tiger · 06-07-2007, 04:07 PM

They should just make movies the best they can be from the beginning.

I'm not going to vote, I don't this is a very good poll. This poll needs at least one more option.

Option 3 No, I'm not willing to pay more, but want the best possible picture and sound that an entire 50 GB Disc can hold.

I'm sure the % would be different if this option was added.
