They can drop the hardware all they want but the movie side needs to drop as well.]]>Jun 22nd 2007 2:14PMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2007/06/22/price-drops-on-hd-dvd-blu-ray-players-boost-sales-surprised/http://www.engadgethd.com/2007/06/22/price-drops-on-hd-dvd-blu-ray-players-boost-sales-surprised/Jun 22nd 2007 5:46PMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2007/06/22/price-drops-on-hd-dvd-blu-ray-players-boost-sales-surprised/http://www.engadgethd.com/2007/06/22/price-drops-on-hd-dvd-blu-ray-players-boost-sales-surprised/
A HD DVD player will look great next to the old betamax player, as unfortunately only one format can win.]]>Jun 24th 2007 8:06AMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2007/06/22/price-drops-on-hd-dvd-blu-ray-players-boost-sales-surprised/http://www.engadgethd.com/2007/06/22/price-drops-on-hd-dvd-blu-ray-players-boost-sales-surprised/
No not all, just 95% of them.]]>Jun 25th 2007 3:39AMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2007/06/22/price-drops-on-hd-dvd-blu-ray-players-boost-sales-surprised/http://www.engadgethd.com/2007/06/22/price-drops-on-hd-dvd-blu-ray-players-boost-sales-surprised/
HD-DVD says our technology isn't as good, but we are cheaper. I would not buy any HD DVD products.

Go for the blue-rays as they have almost double the capacity and more potential for the future.]]>Jun 25th 2007 6:00AMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2007/06/22/price-drops-on-hd-dvd-blu-ray-players-boost-sales-surprised/http://www.engadgethd.com/2007/06/22/price-drops-on-hd-dvd-blu-ray-players-boost-sales-surprised/

Grow up. Blu-ray has a little more capacity but the beta version players that they're selling now combined with ridiculous anti-consumer measures just really don't appeal to me. The only thing bluray has is titles, and they don't have all of them.]]>Jun 23rd 2007 11:28AMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2007/06/22/price-drops-on-hd-dvd-blu-ray-players-boost-sales-surprised/http://www.engadgethd.com/2007/06/22/price-drops-on-hd-dvd-blu-ray-players-boost-sales-surprised/
5 to 1? how many of those are PS3 systems that will never see a Blu-Ray movie in their drive (save for the free Taledaga Nights)? if there are 500% more Blu-Ray players, why are the Blu-Ray sales only about 60% of the HD movies sales- shouldn't this be more like 84%?

Which-ever format makes it to $150 first will win the format war for the masses; and when 100 million+ players (of either format) are installed the studios will change stance and sell in the winning format- none of them can stand to lose millions of disc sales (not even Sony).]]>Jun 26th 2007 9:25AM
