And from what Toshiba have cooking they will release a new non disc format for HD movies in the next 3 years. Since HD DVD death, The movie industry has twice reported that BLU RAY movie sales have gone down not up. BlU RAY will never sell even half of what DVD has, and thats because things will change before the next 3 years are up. People wont have that much of a chance to get their BLU RAY disc collection up or even started. For about 2 years now I have longed to get rid of discs and move to say 20 GB SD cards or Flash drives. Even now they are increasingly cheap to buy. And they are pretty limitless on space.No load times and are far more robust. Disc are incredibly old tech no atter what size Sony introduce. ^Thank you selnor for this contribution. Interesting news and I believe you could be right. A move to a no disc format would be a great move for next generation. Faster loading times and limitless storage space. |
