So now that HD-DVD is officially dead... who's got blu-gay?
|
They are about $400 for now. Just wait a while and they will be down just like Standard DVD's Players did. Patience is key. Most of the movies are going between $25-35 each, but every now and then J&R and Amazon will have a bluray sale where bluray movies will go from $12-25. |
Did I miss something, or is there a .22 pistol called blu-ray?  We have a friend whose husband is always going on and on about how HD-DVD rules and Blu-Ray sucks. He has both (and two flat panel big screen TVs) in his doublewide, and he's always telling me where the best prices ($299 or so at Best Buy, etc) are on HD-DVDs and that I NEED one. I bet he's crying right now, but I'm proud I didn't buy an HD-DVD player. |
I went hd-dvd first back in november and have 22 movies for it, but I did just buy a 40gb PS3 over the weekend for bluray and gaming after the recent developments. I wish sony would have failed I'm not a big fan of them and I still believe hd-dvd was the better format but if I want hd movies it looks like its going to be bluray now.

amen to that. I got a HDDVD computer hooked up to the LCD. Now who knows. |
not necessarily, you can usually find them for cheaper as long as you don't want the newest ones w/the super processors or whatever. i went for the hddvd 360 add on...already own nearly 30 discs as well, just glad i didn't pay much for it :) and hey, at least now i hope hd discs will be stupid cheap so i can rack up some more before they're completely dead and gone :P |

Buy a PS3, I was gonna get an Xbox, but the PS3, at 399, has built in blu ray, throw in killer games like Call of duty4, and no yearly online charges like x box and its a no brainer. ETA: I read that projectors are dropping in price to a reasonable range, there are now 4 1080p projectors under 4 grand, and one is even down to 2500 I think.Thats my next purchase...After some more guns....Although my wife did ask me if playing call of duty 4 with lifesize people would put me into Flashbacks....I told her just to leave when I turn it on and she would be safe! |
I use windows media player's built in. It works OK... |
