HD DVD & Blue Ray content providers wake up smell the roses
I love my home cinema experience. Got a 50"" full HD tele, HDMI amp, PS3 etc. However with upscaling the difference in my opinion between a Blue Ray disk and a standard DVD is not miles apart.
However in the local stores here in Holland where I'm presently working a Blue Ray disk costs twice as much, but it ain't twice as good. So personally I won't buy a Blue Ray disks until the price falls.
It seems like when the industry pushed DVD's originally over VHS they saw it as an opportunity to set a new higher price point (even though DVD's were cheaper to make and ship).
That was fine (well not really but If I was them I would have tried the same) DVD's were a major improvement but its not the case between High Def disks and standard DVD's.
Both hi def formats need market share not only from each other but mainly from standard DVD's so CUT THE PRICE.
