Not touching either HD format until it gets to the 150-200 mark. And I am
on about decent players that has enough outputs, plays mp3's, etc... Mind
you, the whole thing could end up like laserdisc without many takers so the
next popular format may be the one after this gen.
That and I don't like what they said about this new generation not lasting
as long as dvd. You know, I just want a nice long media format that will be
here just as long as VHS was. As in 20-30 years. Not some stupid 5-10
years mark.. But if Sony wins out, we get a new format everytime a
Playstation comes out so... x.x
