Meh, by this time, it's best just to wait it out until the next thing comes along - downloading movies directly to our brains.

I'm sitting here watching Battlestar Galactica Season in HD on HD DVD. For the life of me, i can't see how any other consumer is suffering from me watching programing in HD DVD format. I mean, I can see it now, there is some middle life guy in a best buy somewhere saying, "Jeff Miller is watching a movie on HD DVD, I don't know what to do, I'M SO CONFUSED."
I think this is Sony's revenge for losing the Betamax war.
i know people who literally have 1000s of dvds......where are they gonna store thousands of movies on a computer???
Why would they try to store them? The whole concept as I understand it is that you'd download the movie each time you watch. Of course, if you think it will be 10 years, which I seriously doubt, HDD's should be approaching petabyte size and a thumb drive would hold hundreds of movies.
well, when i buy a movie, i like having that movie at my disposal anytime i want to watch it.....downloading each time you watch??? how much will it cost each time???
and i don't think it will be 10 years before anybody is downloading movies, i think 10 years before everybody is...as in mainstream
You aren't buying the movie, you are buying the service. It's like HBO, only you can chose what and when to watch.
You can bet Netflix would love to send you a unit like that and not have to pay for mail costs on DVD's. They'd just restructure plans so that they break even in a few months and make money after that.
