A wasteland in the future?

just give it time, they say BD+ should be almost done, and once that happens which i think will be this month or next, its over for HD DVD IMO. Bring it on FOX!

I have nothing to lose by waiting and i probably will. I'm concerned, however, because shortly after FOX postponed it's blu ray releases, Sony forced the father of the playstation, Ken Kutaragi, into retirement - apparently becuase of his decision to bundle blu ray into the PS3. This makes me wonder how strong their support for Blu Ray really is. The R&D to develop blu ray is probably a fraction of the production costs, and so far they seem unwilling to give their players away like Toshibia.

If they were intent on winning i think they'd have a crappy 1080i BD player that they'd give away for $250. Most of the people i know with Hi Def TVs have 720p, and they're likely not going shell out the extra $250 for a 1080p player that they don't need.

As noted, despite blu ray out selling HD DVD for most of this year i'm concerned. I hope we get some good blu ray exclusive titles announced soon.

the games are blu-ray...this decision isn't weighed on one man....

it's not like he tells everyone that he's doing it and they must comply....

they have to actually agree with him...
