Overall good arguement. I want to point out a few issues with your arguement. Since you bolded points. I bolded and underlined what I'm pointing out. 1. It will push Blu-ray. Why? because there are tons of people holding off buying into the high-def movie formats till the war is over. If more and more people buy Blu-ray payers then before because the war is over that means it pushed the format. That's why I wrote "much better". Of course there are some holdouts, but info suggests there are more people who just don't care than are hodling out. 2. That is the point. There is a reason why HD-DVD has DVD in it's name. Both Blu-ray and HD-DVD are both advanced forms of DVD that are able to take DVD features to High Def levels and offer new features when thought of. Right now movie studios are creating more advanced menu systems for each movie, new game, pip, etc are all greatly enhanced. You should have bolded the "so far" part right before, which is why you got the context of my comment a bit off, not to mention I later mention I would push for futher options. 3. Even without HD-DVD for competition prices will drop and actually drop faster due to customer damand helping lower production costs. Its just like DVD players. When they were first released they were geez.. 2 grand? for what we would consider now was the low-end $30 DVD player.And the DVDs geez. I remember walking into Walmart the first time they had put in a DVD shelf space. The movies were like $50 each, which was more expensive then the $25 - $30 Blu-ray and HD-DVD movies. Prices will go down especially for the low-end players but there will always be the extreme high-end models that cost $700 - $150. Just look at high-end DVD players. Duh, the prices are dropping. Just that a movie price drop now would be good for pushing sales even faster. |
