But now, I am trying to decide if its worth upgrading to blu-ray so quickly as I have heard mixed things about the release. Don't get me wrong. I have done this for certain films already (E.T., Jaws, Titanic, etc.). But, with the $14.99 price tag on Amazon (as of 3-11-13), is it truly worth the money or do I just keep my DVD copy.

Have you guys dealt with this before?

Any help will be appreciated.

A.I. looks and sounds fantastic on Blu-ray, and it's true to source.

Why are people still buying DVDs?

In the end you need to upgrade to BD anyways, if you want more than a fuzzy picture, and mediocre sound.

Save yourself the DVD purchase in the future, and get the BD right away.
It will save you money in the end.

At least sell that nasty DVD again, and take that money and upgrade to the glorious BD. Just my 2 cents.
