Adoption of Blu-Ray disc is already happening faster than was the case for DVD. I am sure HD war clarity will help this further. What modern TVs cannot show the benefits of Blu-Ray disc?
Phillip Swann, president and CEO of TVPrediction.com:
"I disagree that downloads are becoming more practical -- that's just propaganda from the tech world. The average American does not have the patience or technical skill to use a download service at home, such as Apple TV, Vudu or even XBox 360's service. Plus, download times are usually too long (sometimes hours for a high-def movie) and the picture quality is sub-par to what you see on a Blu-ray or HD DVD disc."
