@ KingofWale - Neither, both are not the target for HDTV and movies

@ Dragonlord - Then how is adding an Apple TV box on top and letting them choose a movie to watch that far fetched??

@ Dogsrules - You're right, physical media will still exist, but no way near the way DVD ruled. Yeah, urban density in South Dakota is low, but you're ignoring all the major cities. The places where yuppies who buy movies and HDTV's live. Also who cares if no one in Africa or India has access to high speed internet because they're probably going to be on VHS's and DVD's for the next decade anyways.


@Fuschia quote.

I would think that the the people from South Dakota would be MORE prone to buy movies for the simple fact that they have less access to various forms of entertainment. You're from Toronto, I've been there. There is tones of entertainment. You can go to the movies, you can go to theatres, you can go to great restaurants, you can go to bars and my choise stripclubs (though for the last two I'm better off here in Quebec city). Watching movies at home has to compete with that. Its not the case in rural areas. Ask DragonLord why he has so many dvd's living in Indiana (no offense DragonLord :) ).

@Green quote.

These are growth markets that should never be ignored. If just the top 1% of those countries want to have High definition movies over what dvd offers, then that is alot of people that would be buying physical HD media.

EDIT: By countries, I mean the countries in Africa and as well as India. Also include China.
