Unsurpassed capacity.

More bits.

In the digital world, picture quality is not just about resolution, but also about bit rates. DVDs have a maximum video bit rate of about 10 megabits per second (Mbps). In comparison, Blu-ray Disc is capable of video bitrates up to an incredible 40 Mbps. The bottom line, higher bitrates allow for the least amount of data compression for HD video that looks closest to the original video source.
