But streaming quality will surpass Blu-ray quality eventually. It's a matter of time.JDHMathews wrote:I feel streaming is not going to surpass DVD/Bluray completely. A number of people will probably know that there's a visual difference between watching something at home on disc compared to streaming from Netflix or Hulu or even Filmstruck. Plus if a service goes down due to a glitch, a DDos attack, internet outage or whatever, it'll prove the biggest flaw with streaming and that the source is way far away from the viewer. The disc is right there for you to use whenever you want to.
And the point about the service going down is a bit silly. It Filmstruck is down, I can read instead or go for a walk. We're not being cryogenically frozen and worrying about the electricity going off. It is annoying but not the end of the world.
