Blu-ray disc playback
Not long ago, during the days of the Standard Definition empire, DVD ruled far and wide. But now a revolution has taken place — the High Definition revolution — and there's a new emperor in town. By simply using a narrow blue-violet laser to read and encode information onto an optical disc, Blu-ray Disc is able to offer over five times the storage capacity of DVD, which uses a wider, red laser. This greatly augmented storage capacity makes it possible for Blu-ray Disc to store both full high definition 1080p video and 7.1-channel, lossless HD audio for a complete high definition home theater experience. Further, there's still storage space left over for a wide range of bonus features available only on Blu-ray Disc. Think enhanced commentary and picture-in-picture viewing. With the LG LHB953 seamlessly integrated into your home, you are ready to experience true HD home theater.
