Current Trends Affecting How We Work

Keeping up with Technology – The Blu-ray Disc is here

leave a comment »

Earlier this year, Blu-ray came out the winner in the highly publicized high-definition format contest. Edging out its rival HD DVD, this means that the Blu-ray Disc can deliver true high- definition (HD) 1080p resolution on a compatible television.

Important note: This will become the universal standard as the replacement for the DVD.

The Blu-ray delivers up to 1,080 lines of resolution on a compatible HD television. It can hold up to 10 times more data than a DVD even though they look virtually the same. The extra space on the disc is required to deliver outstanding visuals and better sounding audio tracks.

Equipment wise, a Blu-ray player is needed. These players should have the capability to play current DVDs. And a PlayStation 3 video game console will also play Blu-ray discs.

You’ll probably see this new Blu-ray technology used with movies. But its just a matter of time until it arrives in our offices in some form or another.
