HD-DVD had combo Disc????

thats your rebuttal to that???

REALLY????

Come on guy........

HD-DVD had Combo Disc and NO ONE BOUGHT THEM........why??? because it wasnt worth it.........

Thats why Warner Bros. never released thos "Total HD" disc with Blu-ray on one side and HD-DVD on the other.......it wasnt worth it......

HD Downloads are STILL a ways off from being a MASS selling point to anyone with less than a 100MBs connection........why?? because it takes TOO long to download movies......not to mention companies like Comcast putting caps on bandwidth.......

then to the "Good Enough" HD rentals from your cable provider........if you like the occasional bad connection that occurs with some cable providers go ahead.....Time Warner sucks in my area, not to mention I'll be damn id I pay $4-5 to PER movie when I get 4 movies out at a time thru Netflix for $25 or a month........

Point blank Blu-ray isnt FOR everybody........hell if it wasnt for my PS3 I wouldnt have a BD player because a stand alone BD player just isnt worth it to me right now. hell for that matter I would prolly not have my 46" Sharp if I aint have my PS3 either........but thats neither hear nor there........point blank Blu-ray is a Big enough change from DVD to justify it being purchased WHEN 2.0 players are @ $200 or less........you get WAAAAAAAAAAY more features on a BD than a Digital Download or a Rented movie thru cable.
oh and back to the not working with your DVD laptop drive.........ya know the cost of BD drives are coming down.....and although I dont see it being STANDARD on ALL Laptops any time soon........5+ years ago DVD drives were considered a LUXURY on Laptops.......did you say the same thing about DVDs not playing on your CD drive???
