Sales are increasing at an amazing speed. It reached mass adoption last year and is well on it's way to replace DVD. In 3 years time we will have a BD market that will be very close to complete market share of all physical media sales. Funny, it seems like it's always the people who have never bought films on physical media and file share etc, etc their movies instead who are against physical media and claim that DDL will take over next. I wanna know how having only DDL would be more benificial, cause I cannot see how. I do know it would give companies more control over us consumers and give us less choice over all. BOTH WILL EVENTUALLY CO-EXIST. Is this so hard to see? |
I would sincerely hope that within the next 5 or so years someone can come up with a beter storage system than blu ray. Sure, it's the best out there at the moment, but it still has the same problems as DVD, the main one being that they are easilly damaged. Someone mentioned Flash storage, I'd welcome a move in that direction, it's faster, more robust, and smaller, I guess it may be more expensive though.
I didn't mention DDL. I hope to god DDL won't take over. If a company tries to go with DDL only, then I'm pretty sure it'll bomb anyway, so we should be safe on that front.
The dude abides
