![]() | You could get a dual-format drive in case Blu-Ray goes the way of Minidisc and Betamax. |

The whole HDDVD vs bluray debate is pretty irrelevant anyway. With the relatively low cost of HDD technology and the numerous options for large capacity PVR's and DVR's watching or recording anything on optical media is soooo passe. Anyway the byword for HD optical has always been DRM. Why dance to the tune of the film studios who insist on the need for this crap. | ||

Rep Power: 32 | Seeing as I got Blu-ray in my PS3 I'm going to use that. It also means I could preorder the special "Deckard Briefcase" version of Blade Runner from Amazon US, as the blu-ray version has no region restriction (quite a lot don't) and the uk edition doesn't come with the case anymore (sigh). |

![]() | Sounds strange, but wait untill you see which format the porn industry take, serious. Thats usually the decider as they produce an untold percentage of the media market in USA and it reflects on most other countries lol. ps= dcmccoy, EVE-Online avatar? |
