Memories R2J vs BD-J (2008 reissue)

[ForMeThisIsHeaven]

Comparison between the 2003 Japanese DVD Memories, specifically focusing on Magnetic Rose, and Blu-ray, reissued in 2008. Bare in mind, while images are taken from their respective hard copies, playback's done via laptop, so image quality and resolution are not ideal. Furthermore, when archiving Blu-ray, due to a combination of DRM & my choice of software (PowerDVD 14), I'm unable to capture using physical media, but instead use 1:1 copies for comparison. Which means aforementioned examples lose some focus as a consequences, unlike DVD, whose images retain 100% intensity. Forgive the watermark (DVD); for whatever reason, step-by-step play for certain discs causes it to stick. Unlike Macross Plus, Cowboy Bebop, and DYRL, pre-HD copy shines, showing outstanding picture & detail, and wonderful color, the latter of which can really be seen in #15. Blu-ray delivers on definition, but as you can clearly see, color has been diminished when comparing the two releases.
