Do any of you have any idea how long it took DVD to become mainstream? Why would you expect anything different for these HD formats? |
I really doubt that HD-DVD or Blu-Ray will ever reach the speedy adoption rate of DVD. DVD didn't require people to buy an entirely new home theatre to achieve quality results with the format. |
They won't reach the speedy adoption rate of dvd because chickensh*t people like you are to scared to out and buy one. You don't need an entirely new home theatre system to achieve quality results from the format. Hdtvs have been out for some time now and you can get a 30" hdtv for under $400 if you don't have one by now or within a few years your just cheap. Please, please stop posting about the hd format wars if you don't have the balls to go out and spend the extra dough for the extra quality that hd gives you. Also I liked your graphs that do show a decline in player sales from 2003 to 2005 and I bet you that from this year on you will see dvd players decline significently. |
Jeez, man. Calm down. Do you work for Sony or something? Why do you care if HD-DVD or Bluray achieve the same adoption rate as DVDs? Either we're cheap - or we have other, more important, things to spend that money on. Like school, a mortgage, car payment, fiance, bills, etc. Now go to your room and consider putting your fanboyism to sleep. |
I own a hddvd player so no I do not work for Sony. I don't care if they achieve the same adoption rate as dvds they won't because there are two companies fighting for supremacy, just don't understand why people love Toshibas dvds but don't like Tosihibas hddvds just because Sony says that you need 50gb instead of 30gb. I have a mortgage, bills, car payment, wife, and two kids so yes you're cheap or you can't manage your finances. Why if someone has an opinion thats different than yours you say it's fanboyism, everyone has a favorite even you that doesn't mean it's fanboyism.
