   At HD 1920x1080 maybe, probably not at 4K native.   
   Although you don't need 4K to enjoy a movie.   
      
   To be honest with you, I don't really know of any   
   USENETter who has a working BluRay. People are not   
   going to tell me about their bootleg ISO9660 collections,   
   but at least there's a slight hint when someone has   
   a 40TB RAID array :-) No one seems to pipe up when   
   a BD problem comes up. Maybe it's "just so easy"   
   they don't bother ?   
      
   I got the impression from some threads on the web,   
   that BluRay is just a pain in the ass, rather than   
   entertainment. For example, on a set top player with Ethernet   
   connection, you can find an old selection that   
   used to play on your box, the key was revoked   
   and the disc you paid for, no longer plays.   
   That's the BluRay story.
