Alas but I feel as if my words fall unheeded to the ears of the fleeting masses.

 

Blu ray and HD-DVD are in competition with each other. Not with DVD. If you do not have an HD TV then why would you throw in your two cents about this. These formats are not in battle to see what will be the "current" dominate format but it is a battle to see what the next dominate format will be. It started a while back if you have not noticed. The majority of stores in my area do "NOT" sell standard definition TV's anymore. No matter whether or not you feel you need HD eventually the market is going to be pushed that way. And I quite frankly believe that anyone who says they cannot see a difference between dvd and a next gen format on a hd tv, is either lying or blind. 

 

Actuly I think the HD format is in war against the standard DVD if the transition takes to long time, or no clear winner is coming. If the price for making HD-movies is so high that it won't be financiel sense to make them because of poor sales. The transition might end. Of course I do belive that one of the format will take over, and that for the moment BR has the biggest chanse, I also belive that many of us will wait untill we have a clear winner and when we can start renting HD-movies.
