    How much better is a bluray played on a UHD machine going to look?

    Seems to be a slight upgrade in resolution ( like a DVD player on a BR machine)

    I just watched BRAVE on BR and don't see how it can Look ' better'

     

    Playing a regular blu-ray on a 4K UHD machine needs a 4K TV to get the upscaling effect. When that's done, it looks surprisingly okay, depending on how the image was mastered.

    I've read people calling the score to Falcon and The Winter Soldier "as good as film music gets". 

     

    Legit question, are people getting legit dumber by the year? 

     

    I think we're prone to forgetting how old we are and expect these youngins to have been exposed to the actual good stuff like we were, when the truth is they've never had any interest in exploring what came before their time. Consequently their only frame of reference is whatever was released in the last five years because that's the limit of their exposure.

     

    It's as if all this has been designed to be that way too, by making everything as bland and vanilla as possible to invite the widest desired audience. Or else it'll be "too niche" or not commercial enough.

  3. I don't think it is. It has bluetooth, which is nifty if I want to play something from my telephone.

     

    My Rotel DAB+ tuner has a network player in it through DTS Play-Fi, which I find a bit clunky. From now on, I'll probably just use my computer as a network player and play all the internet audio stuff from there.
