I know that most blu-ray players will upscale a standard definition dvd to fit and view well on a high definition TV but how is this done?

Difference between blu ray and dvd players?

Amy-zing Butterfly asked:

What is the difference? Eventually it will be all blu ray but can you play dvds in a blu ray player or only the blu ray movies? I though I had seen somewhere that had it for both or maybe it was a duel thing but no idea. I’m sure I am wrong.

From what I see blu rays are expensive and I don’t want to buy one if all the dvds I have will be useless.
