Thirdly, it's still ignorant then to bash BR in its infant stage with statements like "it's not cheap at the moment, and most consumers won't shell out for a BR player". It's called natural progression, tech depreciates over time, and this applies universally to all kinds of tech, so its hardly unique to the situation, and in fact should make common sense to anyone who's dabbled in everything tech related.
If a BR player and BR movies are too expensive, don't buy it. Read through this thread and the 360 fanboys seem to hate BR with a seething passion. Which will fizzle out if the price is right? Now that's a prime example of double standards right there.
You're contradicting yourself dude, and getting it backwards all in one.
1. Bashing something because it's too expensive and valueless is valid at any time in a products life
2. 360 owners don't hate BD, they see it
in context as totally unnecessary. don't hate them because they're right
@i_f, I wasn't having a go at you dude. Any BD buyer PS3 or otherwise obviously gives a hoot about BD, but those are people who have significant disposable income, and your purchasing decision are based on different factors to Joe Soap on a budget.
I've said it a million times BD
might gain acceptance only if it is the same price as DVD, and that has to happen soon, it doesn't have 5 years. UHD ratification is due in under 2 years and digital distribution is squishing it from the other end. Otherwise it's going the way of Laserdisc and UMD.
