Comrade Tovya said: No, DVD is not good enough for the next XBOX... developers were already starting to complain about the DVD-9 space limitations even prior to the release of the 360. Do I think the next format will be Blu-ray? No way. I think their are TONS of other options that don't include paying their competitor royalty fees by using BD as the media format. |
They already pay their competitors royalties to use DVDs and that didn't stop them, why would it suddenly do so for blu-ray?
Also, MS indirectly receives royalties from blu-ray anyway (VC-1), so it isn't totally against their interests.
