And has been mentioned above - blu ray is just a storage medium - with a greatly expanded storage capacity. If you think DVDs with 2-3 hours of footage on it accurately reproduce the original source material - you are wrong.

The fact that some sources claim that the footage exists IN THE ARCHIVES in 16mm says nothing about the fact how was it filmed - Rainbow was also filmed on 2" tape and transferred to 16mm film for theatrical broadcasts, the same goes for the classic Doctor Who if I remember correctly. 2. The whole footage looks like VIDEO not FILM. It's in wonderful quality but still it looks like video 3. The 2" tape has 625 lines of resolution (for PAL), PAL DVD has 576 lines, NTSC DVD has 480 lines. 4. As the last BluRay has shown, upscaling techniques are getting better and better, so a BluRay release could actually look pretty good. Upscaled, but good. And since the DVD allows you only 10.8MBps bitrate for all streams, BR could have this encoded with much better bitrate ---------------- Your first point is very reasonable... then i think rainbow was filmed on 2" tape and LATER transferred to 35 mm for cinemas! (that´s why we always thought it has been shot on 35 mm)

The BBC had a habit of wiping videotape in order to reuse it again. At that time they did not envisage that shows potentially would be released on formats such as VHS and DVD. It's amazing what they were able to restore from old kinescope film.

I really think you should turn to Queen Productions. We, the common people, have little to no idea, not to mention that we're not even in charge of the band's vaults!
