Oh I agree, don't get me wrong. I am just saying that because Toshiba and Sony messed around so long, there will never be the large base of people demanding BDs like there is for DVDs. They were still fighting the format war for the first few years of affordable high def screens, and that was a costly mistake.
You can HD/Bluray fiasco on Toshiba. Their greed led to an unwillingness to agree to a SINGLE standard and they have paid dearly for it.
Yep, I agree that they botched the introduction of this medium to the market very badly. I just love it though, sometimes, such as while I was watching Avatar on Blu Ray, I have to pick my jaw up off of the floor from what I see on my screen.
Now if we could only get Hollywierd to make some good movies to watch...
