Buying a Blu-Ray or HD DVD player will also make regular DVDs look better as well. This is one advantage that DVD never had. Many VHS owners were reluctant to adopt DVD because, despite it's advantages over VHS, it would involve them either owning and maintaining multiple players, or else getting rid of their VHS collection. DVD rendered VHS obsolete, which many didn't want to face. With HDM, DVD can still stick around for a nice long time. They can coexist in the marketplace and in people's homes. |
thats a really good point, i never thought about it that way before.
