Planet Earth is actually pretty awesome. Some ppl say its better than blue planet. Dunno about that but it is good and on blu-ray i bet it looks pretty freakin sweet.

the quality is superb on Blu-Ray, I haven't seen blue planet, but the picture quality looks incredible.

Get the BBC one with David Attenborough instead. Sigourney Weaver's narraration is shite

blue plant was shoot on SD. No blue ray/(soon to be dead) HD dvd. I have the Attenborough narrated edition. Something about British accents and animal documentary that works. Can't really imagine Ripley talking about animals killing each other.

I have the BBC version too. Didn't see the Sig Weaver version, but the Attenborough naration is spot on. Highly recommended.

#7, are you saying that they went out and specifically used low-quality SD cameras instead of shooting this on Film? Can you please verify your sources on this? A lot of people are hoping for a nice Film->HD transfer of this series.

This was shot in HD.
The blu-ray version I bought couple of weeks back has Attenborough's commentary and it sounds good. Well worth for $60 or so.

Blue planet, however they show it, didn't allow then to create hi-def blueray/hddvd discs.
This series, however, is just stunning. Seriously. I downloaded the 720p HD video files. While my computer can juuust eek by playing these 2.2gb files, it ruined my desire to buy a DVD version. The first DVD I buy when I buy a HDTV will be the Planet Earth set.
The BBC version, of course. :-p
