    Default No Blu -Ray

    I can't understand why there is no official Blu Ray video release
    of Don. As far as I know only "Inside Job" is available and that is DVD
    only.
    There must be a market for such a release. Does anyone know why there
    Is so little official material available?
    This of course also applies to the Eagles with very limited live concert
    Material available.
    Maybe Don himself is against putting out live concerts but if only there was
    a blu Ray of the HOTE tour that would have been so good now that Glenn
    has passed.

    Blu rays are relatively recent and Don hasn't released a video in 15 years. Maybe his Austin City Limits will see such a release.

    I'm sure if there is a demand for his concerts to be released on blu-ray they will be. Don may be a bit of a fuddy duddy when it comes to social media, but he would certainly allow his performances to be upgraded to a more current platform for purchase.

    Oh, I'm sure he'd allow it, but often older television programs don't upgrade well. The Blu Ray treatment exposes flaws rather than improves the quality. That's why we don't have a Blu Ray of HFO, I believe.

    That makes sense. They could also be in the process of remastering them. I have seen a lot of older movies coming out on blu-ray recently, and the quality isn't bad at all. I'm sure it takes many hours of digitizing them to make them good enough for a higher quality video and audio than what they were originally recorded at.
