   Bluray is 1080p (most of them anyways) which is the highest HD quality.   
      
   DVD's are standard def so quite a bit lower in resolution.  Lucas hasn't   
   put any of the star movies on bluray yet (except the clone wars   
   cartoon).  The only way to watch it on HD is to find a bootlegged copy   
   off the internet.  It's been aired on TV in HD, so its around (HD from   
   TV isn't as good as a bluray, but its the best there is right now).   
      
   Hopefully lucas doesn't wait too long to put them on blu.  He waited   
   quite the while put the trilogy on DVD.
