the blu-ray that I have seen in the stores is amazing. I might even consider investing in it if Hollywood was putting out any worthwhile films, but they aren’t. So, what’s the point, why should anyone care?

You mean you don't want to see Micheal Moore and Al Gore preaching to you why America sucks and why people are gonna destroy the earth?

They strike gold once in a while. Sin City and 300 come to mind. Batman Begins is good stuff, also.

An important consideration.

The "best" movies; i.e pre-Blu Ray /HD, were not filmed digitally, and don't look that much better on BR than they would on upconverted DVD.

How badly do I want to see "Fast and Furious" or "National Treasure" on super hi res DVD?

Not very.

Digital technology has made it far easier to make, distribute and profit from poor content, music and video.
