will HD-DVD or bluray win?

[MatTheMurdera]

Sorry I wasnt realy sure where to put this. Discuss why and how long it will take. Thanks.

I between the two, HD-DVD. Overall PH-DVD, easyer and cheaper to make, 100GB; easy conversion from current production

Are you for real?

 

[MatTheMurdera]

No, no its just because I want to hear peoples opinions to help form my own. nothing more.

 

[MatTheMurdera]

yes I am indeed.

 

[MatTheMurdera]

O and dont ever post on the thread again unless you have something constructive to say. Thanks.

 

[sdrawkcaBgoD]

This is going to get ugly...

I can't wait!

 

[MatTheMurdera]

hey, I just want people's opinions on hd-dvd and blu-ray.

 

[mesarectifier]

If you want opinions then read one of the many other threads.

If you listen to the opinions of others in order to form your own, you're not forming your own. Look at the facts. People using the opinions of others as their own because they're too dumb to form their own opinions is why people like dubya and others get away with stuff. Go read the Daily Mail.

Well there are a few things to look at. To me One Managed Copy is the reason I think HD DVD should win(that and cost). To not allow OMC on Blu-ray is retarded.

Cost is just silly, I don't understand why manufacturers would agree to upgrade their facilities to Blu-Ray with its costs compared to HD DVD....but they are. I don't really consider capacity to be an issue as both have shown a minimum of 100MB to be easily attainable(Blu-Ray shows a 200GB, but I think 100MB is enough - for now and for quite some time)

Anyhow, personally I'm gunning for HD DVD, but it could go either way.

 

[sdrawkcaBgoD]

I don't think it could "go either way". Bluray hasn't got a chance in hell. Sony wants us to go out and buy a ridiculously expensive console, buy overpriced games and also help them make money through their Bluray technology. I've always been a Sony fan but from now on they can kiss my fat @$$.

Okay, that got a little angry towards the end. I apologize. But I still think that Bluray is DOA.

Yeah it reaks of Beta all over again too bad it was the better tech... but as with soooo many things the beter tech isnt always the better solution.

 

[MatTheMurdera]

I am only useing those that are supported with verifiable (sp?) and credable sources of course, sorry if i was not clear on that.

 

[Heyyou27]

I think HD-DVD will win; DVD is a well known name, HD-DVD is cheaper, and chances are it'll receive better support in the industry. Anyone remember Sony's betamax? Exactly my point.

 

[sdrawkcaBgoD]

Not only Betamax. How 'bout 8-track? UMD is on its way out, too.
