I play most of my video from my laptop through HDMI, so for me, the blu will definitely be better. I can't really take full advantage of LPCM audio, so I'll probably demux those and keep it as an mkv, but from what I saw, the picture quality looks great and I'm also curious about the menus and stuff, I'm sure they'll be great. Any idea how it will be shared yet? Using torrents is strictly forbidden by my school dorm internet provider (not because it's illegal but because it could provide access to the local network from outside) and is punished by an immediate ban :-(
