For your "bloody hell I am old" for the day I will note that the PS2, arguably when the DVD takeover happened, just passed the 19 year mark at this point. Assuming they were 5 when it dropped (never mind some kind of greasy teenager) then they are now in prime sprogging years. This is to say it might not be the case that when I were a lad was much worse? Also if streaming services, which I am told is what everybody is supposed to be using these days, don't figure out that no man can be an island then quality might have been better back then (and while I saw some shoddily mastered DVDs and can spot a comb that lasts a single frame I have yet to go "ooh blu ray" when it comes to resolution).
