The recent surveys by DHG showed that the problem with lack of awareness for Blu Ray. A lot of people didn't even know the format war was over. They need to push for the fact that HD streaming and upscaled DVD is not the same as Blu Ray.

 

 

I sold a hddvd player on craigslist today, and the buyer didn't know the format was dead.

Now if that ain't the meanest thing ever, I don't know what is!  Pretty funny though



Generation 8 Predictions so far.....(as of 9/2013)

Console that will sell most: Nintendo Wii U

Who will sell more consoles between Microsoft/SONY: SONY

 

How to popularize BD - sell movies for 15-20$.

Seriously whoever decided it's good idea to sell BD movies for 30 euro in EU and sometimes more definitly needs his head checked.
I'm not willing to pay more than 20 for good movies and definitly not over 15 for avarage ones.

"Only solution is through tougher regulation and better education."

Regulation can only go so far without violating civil rights. And in the case of countries without the latter, they don't seem to mind piracy that doesn't hurt them personally.

Education is a bad move. You don't teach people why your product is better when bought legally. Or are you talking about instilling morals into people?



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

Plus, just for the hell of it: Kelly Brook at the 2008 BAFTAs

The same way many of you were misinformed that PS3 would win the format war, and that blu-ray would have half the marketshare by now?

That's partly a flame, but it's still true. Pretending HD DVD buyers are suckers doesn't change the fact that blu-ray supporters were fooled as well.

Fooled?  New Blu-Ray movies are coming out at an increasingly quicker pace.  More and more types of products and products manufacturers support Blu-Ray.  Movie studios are putting more and more effort into their Blu-Ray releases.  A lot of older titles are coming down in price as the market naturally grows and the number of titles increases.  Player prices are cheaper for those who want to pick up a 2nd player or who have yet to buy one.

If that is being fooled, then I wish I would get fooled more often.

Blu-Ray doesn't have to be creaming DVD for a Blu-Ray owner to be more than happy.  Do some people just not understand this?  DVD wasn't the king of the hill for quite a few years.  It will take Blu-Ray even longer.  But why should I be upset about it if Blu-Ray is getting studio support and electronic manufacturer support?  Its not like I get some sense of fulfillment during the day when Blu-Ray increases its market share.

I don't understand at all how we were fooled into anything, and if we were how has it become a bad thing?



We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.  The only thing that really worried me was the ether.  There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke

It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...."  Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson

How'da thought China would make Pirated blu ray DVD's? ... I DID!
