Its Blu-ray not DVD right? DVD was an impossibly low resolution, that really isn't fun to watch today.
Blu ray works perfectly on today's hardware
DVD actually still holds up for 2D animation, as 2D animation is probably the only medium that holds up well upscaled from 480p, there's just not a lot of detail to lose in the upscaling process compared to live action or even 3D animation to some extent.
DVD is perfectly fine resolution, not everyone even has a 4K screen or TV. Most people still have 720x1080 or 1080x1920p screens or TVs. Our tv personally is 720x1080 and it looks just fine.
That's a 15 year old TV at least and of course you don't see a difference on that. My 4k is at least 6 years old. If I bought one now I would not be able to buy lower res.
DVD is pal or ntsc and if you played that on a monitor the picture is as small as phone. It's like the lowest SVGA res
Yeah but we’ve also seen 4k screens and the iMac at our vocational school class was an 8k display. We get it’s an us thing but like we’ve experienced higher resolution screens before and unless it’s for productivity like for work, resolution wasn’t the determining factor of enjoying content, it was whether the content was good or not in the first place :P
Heck CRTs were standard at 480p and nobody had any problems
