Pretty good Elstevo for tired babble. Congrats on your wedding and here's wishing you and your bride many years of happiness! Cheers!

That was then, this is now. DVD had nothing on the horizen ready to pounce on it. BD, OTOH, has new technology ready to gobble it up. BD has a very small window of opportunity. If they keep prices high, it will relegate itself to a niche market.

This pretty well supports what you stated Blockbuster’s movie-streaming move This is a little alarming.....With the new model of streaming video, he said, any type of DVR, VCR, DVD-style STBs will become as antiquated as eight-tracks. And with regards to concern that Blockbuster will...

No, get over yourself because you picked the winner in a two horse race. Had HDDVD won it would face the same obstacles.

Huh? did you just crawl out from under a rock. It's called DVD, it's called downloads, it's called lack of mass adoption. When I see stuff like this a few words come to mind.... not well informed. It appears your the one in denial.

Go ahead and brag about the battle, it's the war BD ain't gonna win.

It being a Sony Format:eek:

It's called satire but I really didn't expect you to pick up on it. Everytime the wind blew a few months ago some blubots on this forum would start all their thread topics with the "another nail in the coffin...." We'll leave it up to Sony and the BDA to continue to drive their own nails:D

You obviously missed this part of the article..... The Internet could soon be made obsolete. The scientists who pioneered it have now built a lightning-fast replacement capable of downloading entire feature films within seconds. At speeds about 10,000 times faster than a typical...

Yes they are well on their way to missing the window of opportunity for mass adoption. If that's what they want.

analysts believe that global demand for Blu-ray discs will rise three times in 2008 to a minimum of 43 million units. This is pure speculation. The Sony propaganda machine just keeps turning out the crap. My local Bestbuy still have PS3 and BluRay discs collecting dust. I'm in my local...

Good for you. You should have saved your money and rented it. I wouldn't pay $5.00 for that suck a$$ movie.:eek:

Typical BD fanboy spin. Hardware/ software is to high for mass adoption. If this remains the case, BD will be the second fatality in the format war.

True but still nothing to brag about. This movie won best pictue, best director and best supporting actor. From Blu-ray.com; No Country for Old Men Blu-ray Review Riveting, primal, and drenched with symbolism, the Coen brothers' latest film boasts the best picture ever authored for home...

What they failed to mention was that No Country For Old Men only sold 1,000,000 on DVD and 68,000 on BD. So, no that's not 10%.

No need to be obnoxious and rude. I never was. I just simply stated that if they wouldn't cut me a deal I would find another provider.

e-mail D* customer service, complain about the price and you're not willing to pay $200.00, state how you have been a customer for a long time and that it isn't fair how new customers get the fee waived and existing customers get the shaft. Lastly, threaten to leave D* for another provider if...

Keep it open indefinately or until BluRay catches on or dies.

Yep, with data like this BD will never be adopted by the masses before the next big thing arrives. Optical discs out, downloads in.

Well then show me a huge difference in PQ between a good upconverted dvd and blu ray. Different yes, huge it's not.

Let's be sure to let the Ipod/MP3 crowd know that it's far to volatile a format to even consider.

Don't shoot the messenger but an interesting read... THX Chief Scientist: ...it's too late for Blu-ray - DVDTOWN.com

It will be the flaws and pricing that will keep Blu Ray and High Dollar Media from being mass adopted. Then we both can have a seance:D
