QUOTE(low98944 @ Apr 9 2012, 11:01 PM) You need UK iTune account for UK digital copy and likewise US iTune account for US digital copy. No lah. I am not taukeh, just lazy to visit cinema since already got BD, cinema not longer satisfy my need and too lazy to download and wait. So, end up have to blind buy based on others review.  Yup. Will register for a UK account Added on April 10, 2012, 2:09 amJust spent more than 30 mins trying to set up a UK account. Finally got the digital copy and the quality is really not worth my time.

QUOTE(fadthil @ Apr 10 2012, 11:46 AM) exactly!! as i mentioned in my earlier post i rated all digital copies quality as low-def... even dvds are mid-def and better quality than that...  well it was done so because it is meant for mobile / portable units; so file sizes are much smaller and quality is compromised. my mkv blu-ray ripped from the web looks a lot better than digital copies actually... not that i support those so called "shared" files  I support "shared" files in a way how shareware works. I will try it, and if i don't like it, i delete it. If i like it "enough" i will buy it. Sounds fair right? hehe

QUOTE(fadthil @ Apr 10 2012, 04:47 PM) well at least that's how i watch new movies anyway. unlike others who are a bit "well-off" (he he...), i cant afford blind purchases and i'd only buy (to collect) my blurays if i find it worth to buy in the first place; at least for myself and so i'd never own a bluray movie that i've never watch before (except if it's a gift). more so, not all movies shown at our cinemas anyway... so a "shared" format is the one to go!  well bro at least this better than buy a 'jack sparrow' products by donating profits to the pirate chiefs!  If this was Facebook, i would have "LIKED"  your post  100% agree with you. Im also a budget buyer. Hence im always looking for good deals, especially boxsets. Right now i think i have most that I want. Just waiting for LOTR and Harry Potter to drop in price

QUOTE(cffchan @ Apr 10 2012, 05:25 PM) I agree 100% with your bro. I normally aim for cheap boxset. Just received Bourne Trilogy, This is it & Final Fantasy Advent Children. Cheers.. Awesome! I got the Bourne Trilogy as well when it was around 14 pounds 2 weeks ago. I also added in MJ cos its so cheap. Pasar Malam also cannot beat the price.

Predator Trilogy Blu-ray was on 80%++ sale a few hours ago for 6.97 pounds and now back to 25 pounds. I was contemplating to buy this. I put it in my basket today at 11am. And now when i finally decided to buy it.. the price went back up. What a waste.

QUOTE(scmah73 @ Sep 28 2012, 06:30 PM) if i not mistaken what you saw and refering in the stores are those LED with 100hz or 200hz effect  Yup.. i agree.. youre notebook is probably running at 60hz hence you wont see that sort of effects you would experience on a 100hz or more (also known as anti Motion Blur)
