We will be lucky to get a old color movie in 1080p glory let alone B&W.

Blu-ray seems better

Soooo..the hybrid player is out, it's $800, and Blockbuster hasn't a prayer once Netflix incorporates their direct-to-home HD movie feeds.

If WWE goes HD what side are they on ?

I posted this in another thread but it is very much relevant.

The format war is now over.

Toshiba is abandoning HD-DVD.

PS3 pwned?

In other words, did the PS3 have very much to do with Blu-ray winning the format war?

I would think that the PS3 is what started it...followed by BlockBuster...then Netflix...then Walmart. Opinions?

Mods...are we going to change the name of this forum to "Blu-ray Talk"?

I wish a new format comes out that craps all over blue ray before it even becomes as mainstream as DVD's.

Well, Blu-ray is getting there.

There is something out there that will very soon be bigger than physical media.

Streaming. 😐

It is already done EVERYDAY on my computer through Neflix.

Blue ray disks are going down in price

Is anyone considring starting there movie collection all over again but in blue ray ? This time without making the mistakes you did with dvds ??
I am !

I wanna sell all my dvds but i dont think i'll get much money for them becouse i only have 50 .

Would you start all over again ? I dont wanna be left behind the Blue ray revolution 🙁

In short no.

Definitely not, between dvd and blu ray on my television there isn't much of a difference, not enough to bother me and make me want to get better quality. So to me it's just stupid to replace all my dvds with blu ray.

Plus I don't like the shitty boxes the discs come in, I like the normal dvd size boxes and different editions you can get.

All I've seen is horrible plastic boxes with this nasty blue bit at the top.

The only time I will get blu ray is when that is all they start selling and dvds start becoming like vhs, and that will not be for a long time.

That's what I would have said if I wasn't lazy.

i think am the only one who like the blue boxes

i have a Ps3 so all i buy now is blu ray discs anyone else givin up on buying dvds ?

No, and not going to ever unless dvds stop selling, and that WILL NOT be for a longgggggggggggggg time.

Same.

Well, I will probably get a Blu Ray player when they cost under $100, but that itself probably won't be for a long time.

im waiting til they are under £100 too
when im buying dvds i wonder whether to stop and concentrate on buying a blu ray player then i look at my purchases from yesterday - Requiem For A Vampire - cult horror from 71 and Doctor Who The Aztecs from the 60s
if your a fan of cult flicks it wont make a differance as the transfers will never look good on a blu ray

Too expensive i stiil need to buy HD TV
