everyone needs to go to blu ray so the DVD can die and then blu ray disks will become cheaper.

[WS_Jack_III]

Blu Ray is dead. You can download stuff in 1080p now. All it is is another excuse for Sony to milk money from the "must have it first because I embrace technology" crowd. Its going to be obsolete soon.

[The Nal]

that post makes me sad

[WS_Jack_III]

Sorry, its true though. The life span of these things has gotten shorter and shorter as the years go by.

VHS - 20 years

DVD - 12 years so far

Blu Ray - 7 years so far

I downloaded the Blu Ray rip of Heat last night, 12GB. Absolute perfect quality. Arsed if Im paying 25 quid for the disc.

f**king LONG film by the way.

[The Nal]

7 years. i thought it started out just before ps3

[WS_Jack_III]

well anyway there are a few in the stores that are coming down in price and differnet offers. As long as the PS3 is about then sony will back it

I couldn't be arsed paying £25 for Heat Blu-ray, but I could be arsed paying £8.99 for a new copy of it. So I did. The £25 argument is silly, I don't know anyone who pays that.

[pinback]

my brother worked at hmv and does know people. absolutely off their nuts to be paying that.

[ampersand]

Corrected: nobody sane will pay that.

It doesn't fit with Heat in any case because only the brand new films cost that much. Catalogue titles tend to be stuck in that 2 for 25 thing at HMV.

[pinback]

i remember looking at juno and it was £35. that should be illegal!

[ampersand]

Jesus wept. HMV though. I aim to get Juno, but I'll pay no more than a tenner for it.

It's no real replacement for the old pictures houses of your youth, really. Will they be streaming "talkies" do you think?

My Blu ray copy of Withnail and i has just arrived. I am very happy!

The greatest film ever made was on BBC3 the other night.
