Its the compression stupid

It's the compression the HD you watch at home is highly compressed HD. The worst thing to try and compress is noise it changes every frame and eats up bandwidth like a hungry little demon. Fast pans and subtle shadows will show where the math falls apart noise on top of this will be a challenge. HD and Blueray are good but the potential for better is there.

Think that uncompressed HD video takes 190 MBps and BlueRay has a max of 40 MBps. Unfortunately I think that at full 40 MBps. it would lead to an hour of video taking up about
150 Gigs of space.
