When DVD was first on the horizon, LD fans had said the same thing to
DVD. I won't replace my LD collection anytime soon, many titles won't
be available on DVD ever, etc.

Look what happended not ten years in.

HD DVD will do to DVD what DVD did to LD. When the studios have a
format ironed out, they will push the new format to skin the same cow
a few more times, that's how they make money from their catalog.

It might take HD DVD a bit longer to make DVD redundant but the end is
near for DVD, especially when the studios can pack HD DVD and SD DVD
on the same disc.
