Nope. People simply dont care and it has been proven time and time again. Current technology is fine. Improvements are nice but the majority of people could care less since they are satisfied with the current level of quality on TV and so am I. I really dont need to see anything in 1080 res period, end of story. All i want is to make out the main scene and understand the story otherwise the visuals are not that important. Look at it this way, how long have we had XM radio and all these digital radio alternatives? Yet how many have switched over? Yep very few and no one that I know because the radio is good enough for what its meant to do. |
OT, but I don't think satellite radio's problem is that people are okay with terrestrial radio. The problem is people would much rather just listen to their brand spanking new iPod where they can choose exactly what they want to hear instead of what some record company paid the station to play repeatedly. My car's CD player can play MP3 files so all I have is a CD visor full of burned CDs filled with MP3s. Radio never gets put on unless I'm traveling with my boyfriend and the yankees' game is on. Neither satellite or terrestrial have enough dedicated programming to the music I want to listen to. XM has a few shows that occasionally play the music I like, but it's certainly not enough for me to pay for it. Before this car, I used my iPod, before my iPod, I used my sony discman. In the 7 or so years I've had my own car, I've never once been a radio listener.
To cash in my CC rewards points for $300 in Circuit City gift cards to purchase a 360 or not: That is the question.
