Sony (SNE)'s Blu-Ray Wins DVD War; Hollywood Loses

[AikonEnt]

Faster internet connections will also be reducing the number of DVD sales. There are so many torrent sites these days where you can download films for free and as people have the faster connections it doesn't take days to download, you start it at night and it could have finished downloading in the morning. I used to do a lot of blind buying with DVD's (hence the 800+ I own), but these days I'll download something I think I might find interesting and if I like it I'll buy it, if not then I haven't wasted any money. Pretty much all the Blu-ray's I own I've already got on DVD or have downloaded first. My days of blind buying are pretty much at an end.
