"Over America" (1080p) has some stunning photography and a good Bluray to show your HDTV setup off. I got it from Walmart for $14.99.

    Thanks for the heads up. I think I'll pick it up along with Planet Earth. I've been looking for discs other than movies that show off BD's pic quality.

    I would love to get my hands on the Sony demo bluray they run to show off their Bravia sets. That has some stellar images.

    Did they only ship them out to dealers? Maybe you can talk to the manager about getting a copy. I've seen some nice demo stuff out there and I can only imagine how they would look if the TV's in the stores were calibrated.

    I tried searching ebay, the web in general, but I'm not really sure what to call "it." I've seen demo blurays, but not sure if they are the right one.

    I think the picture quality is as good as, if not better than "Planet Earth."
