The recent surveys by DHG showed that the problem with lack of awareness for Blu Ray. A lot of people didn't even know the format war was over. They need to push for the fact that HD streaming and upscaled DVD is not the same as Blu Ray.

 

 

I sold a hddvd player on craigslist today, and the buyer didn't know the format was dead.

 

 We should go into buisness together, robbing from the mis-informed and giving to our favorite Charity!!

 

 

 

The same way many of you were misinformed that PS3 would win the format war, and that blu-ray would have half the marketshare by now?

That's partly a flame, but it's still true. Pretending HD DVD buyers are suckers doesn't change the fact that blu-ray supporters were fooled as well.

Fooled?  New Blu-Ray movies are coming out at an increasingly quicker pace.  More and more types of products and products manufacturers support Blu-Ray.  Movie studios are putting more and more effort into their Blu-Ray releases.  A lot of older titles are coming down in price as the market naturally grows and the number of titles increases.  Player prices are cheaper for those who want to pick up a 2nd player or who have yet to buy one.

If that is being fooled, then I wish I would get fooled more often.

Blu-Ray doesn't have to be creaming DVD for a Blu-Ray owner to be more than happy.  Do some people just not understand this?  DVD wasn't the king of the hill for quite a few years.  It will take Blu-Ray even longer.  But why should I be upset about it if Blu-Ray is getting studio support and electronic manufacturer support?  Its not like I get some sense of fulfillment during the day when Blu-Ray increases its market share.

I don't understand at all how we were fooled into anything, and if we were how has it become a bad thing?

 

I just wrote the specific points you were fooled on. Those other points don't magically make them untrue, no matter how much you are pretending they do. Nor is it even looking at the context of what I was responding to.
