Very nice to here. Blu-ray is here to stay, and movies, games, and personal storge are the better because of it.

I never got into DVD. Even to this day I only have 7. Someone in this thread hates me, because when DVD came out my family had a 1080i TV, and shortly after a 42in 720p Sharp. DVD has been a joke since it came out, and I have been waiting for a long time for a disc format that looked like it was built for the future. Blu-ray already supports the highest definition of TV's on the market, and as mentioned above it has room to support future formats with little to no cost added. That is the nice thing about Blu-ray. In ten years from now they can UHD Blu-ray players and the tech will be nearly mainstream prices day 1.

You have the ability to travel time? Awesome.

Might want to get your timelines straight there, chief. DVD was released in 1996, almost two years before the first HDTVs were sold in America. How do I know this? I had a ticket to the release in San Diego. It was a pretty big deal... and I already owned a DVD player. It's how I got the ticket. Early adopter, all that jazz.
