Blockbuster goes Blu-ray, HD DVD=beta?,


Blockbuster announced they will go exclusively Blu-ray. How much will this effect the format wars? Will this send HD DVD the way of the Beta? Could this be the Sony KO punch, or does BB really have that much clout? Sound the alarm or hit the snooze button?

If you get Planet Earth box set (either HD-DVD or Blu-ray)just remember to catch your jaw before it hits the floor....it is simply stunning!

That's the BBC series you're talking about, Shadorne? I shall seek it out, then.

Yes it is currently the best selling HD-DVD and Blu-ray title on Amazon.

I agree with Johnny...some stuff is excellent and some is mediocre and barely much better than DVD. A lot depends on the individual production quality.

I am watching on 1080p on a screen with full 1920 x 1080 pixels on the screen. Any HD TV with less than the exact and appropriate pixels (to match the source) will not quite give you the full monty.
I went for the Toshiba D2 from Costco. At $249 and 5 free HD DVDs its hard to pass up. HD and upscaling looks very good, plus the free HD DVDs, I can watch the format wars play out in relative comfort.
I bought the PS3 for Blueray
it's great!

If BestBuy favored one format that would probably settle it
they go with a dual player
