Universal Getting positive feedback on 'Double sided Discs'

[Rik1138]

Unless they are going to get rid of the DVDs all together (and I mean, like next week) and just sell BD/DVD flippers, I don't see the point. If you are buying a BD, you have a Blu-ray player, you don't even _want_ the DVD anymore. If you do have a use for the DVD, it's most likely in some other location, so you want that disc to be separate...

I guess if all the bonus content was SD and it was going to be a DVD anyway, and they put that on the DVD side and the movie on the BD side, that might make a little sense... But just a DVD copy of the film? I would want to be able to separate that from the BD (like let the kids have it in their room, loan out to people that don't have a BD player, etc...)

I wonder if they are actually concerned about the percentage of people that would buy a BD and give/sell the DVD to someone else (thus causing them to loose a potential DVD sale...).
