    PCs seen playing key role in HD-DVD vs Blu-ray war

    Right now BluRay has a $1000 ripper and blank media at $20 per disc. That's not going to take the market by storm. It's going to take years for BluRay to come down in price to make it worth owning. Grandpa is not ripping, they are most likely buying movies at $9.99 on DVD. Why bother...

    Blue-Ray Recorders, 2nd Gen?

    steal for data storage? might as well get an IPOD, just as much stoage space, for 1/3 the cost. As a storage medium BluRay is really not he way too go. And like gizzer said, HDDs are super cheap, and getting cheaper.

    What's Blu-Ray?

    Analyst Declares Blu-Ray the Winner

    Blu-Ray not hitting the PC market? I don't see why they don't want that market. There are plenty of shops wanting alternate backup and storage mechanisms and Blu-Ray has been touted to do just that cause of it's potential media size. Blu-Ray writers... if the readers are selling at...

    Analyst Declares Blu-Ray the Winner

    I would not take what the PS3 might be as anything worth considering at this point. The Pioneer $1800 model does 1080p. The $1000 BluRay(cheapest so far) models will not be doing 1080p, at least in the first wave from what I have read.

    PS3 VaporWare?

    http://engadget.com/2006/01/16/playstation-3-conceptual-design/ I think the comments offer a lot as well. With so few details on the PS3, will it really play a role this year, 2006, in Blue Ray advancement?

    Analyst Declares Blu-Ray the Winner

    I am siding with HD-DVD. If the market doesn't come out that way, oh well. Screw the anal-cyst.
