Blu-ray Discs are similar to DVDs, but display their content in stunning high-definition resolution, which is up to 5 times as detailed as standard-definition DVDs. A Blu-ray player is required to view Blu-ray discs, however since most Blu-ray players also play standard DVDs, you don’t have to worry about replacing your DVD collection anytime soon. Stop by any AADL location to check them out, or click here to browse the collection and place holds online. The Blu-ray discs are categorized by genres, providing a more rewarding browsing experience.
