I suppose that's true. It seems likely that we'll have 3 successful media formats for many years to come though.

true, but how i wish one HD format would just die out.

Have you read this part from Michael Bay

"What you don't understand is corporate politics. Microsoft wants both formats to fail so they can be heroes and make the world move to digital downloads. That is the dirty secret no one is talking about. That is why Microsoft is handing out $100 million dollar checks to studios just embrace the HD DVD and not the leading, and superior Blu Ray. They want confusion in the market until they perfect the digital downloads. Time will tell and you will see the truth."

Thats a scary thought.

Though I cant see Digital downloads doing well unless they make a new codec that would play 1080p videos from 100mb of data and sell the videos really cheap....

scratch that, it would still be pretty hard for the average movie lover to play the movie on his/her Big screen.


Ok I didn't have an opinion on him.... but now I know he is a fucking caveman moron...... digital download is the future..... and any format on which they release video music and software right is pure shit beside the low cost of production even his "superior" Blu ray shit.....

for the rpice of 10 BR I can get a HDD big enough to store 100 time that and I should be able to pay the movies half if not less the price on internet in full HD.... and don't tell me you need a 1080p film to be on a format under 8Go that's BS the slowest cable connection should be able to handle a movie like that in less than 12 hours which mean you get up you start the DL and you have the movie when you go home...

come on in france I can get a 20Mbps DSL connection for less than 50 bucks a month...... it's the fucking 5th country in the world... why the hell am I paying 40 bucks for a 3Mbps cable connection where I live in USA....

Download is the future and michael bay is fucktard

 

 Anger aside...

 

I do agree, Digital Downloads do have a future.  But there will still be a market for physical media as well.  Alot of people like to be able to have their media on their shelves.  Even though MP3 downloads have set in, there are people that still buy CDs.

 

Plus, America and many other countries are a long ways away for 20 Mbps.



"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY."  --Hermann Goering, leading Nazi party member, at the Nuremberg War Crime Trials
