MacTavish Posted June 16, 2007 Posted June 16, 2007 Which one of these media players do you have? I use regular DVD's
Don Quixote Posted June 16, 2007 Posted June 16, 2007 I happen to have Blu-Ray and the graphics are amazing!
CLONECOMMANDER501 Posted June 16, 2007 Posted June 16, 2007 I wish I had Blue Ray but I don't watch any movies so..........
Diego Varen Posted June 16, 2007 Posted June 16, 2007 DVD. I do plan to get a PS3 at some point though, but whether I'll use its Blu-Ray option, I have no idea.
Samnmax221 Posted June 16, 2007 Posted June 16, 2007 Currently DVD. I'm going to sit back and see how this format war pans out before making any decisions.
Titanius Anglesmith Posted June 16, 2007 Posted June 16, 2007 I'm not upgrading from regular DVDs until I see what eventually becomes more popular and/or widespread. It'll be a sad day when I do upgrade though, since my whole movie collection is DVDs, and I'll be set back just a few dollars if I have to buy every one of them again.

I think the HD DVD player is compatible with regular DVD's.
Commander Obi-Wan Posted June 16, 2007 Posted June 16, 2007 Currently, I have a DVD player. Though, I also have my Xbox 360, which is hook-up to my TV through an HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) cable and the picture is quite clear and sharp. I don't when I'll upgrade, if I do, to HD-DVD or Blu-ray. But, I don't see it coming in time soon.
Fredi Posted June 16, 2007 Posted June 16, 2007 DVD.... but I wich I could have blu-ray.. ha-ha and I use too VHS
Jeff Posted June 16, 2007 Posted June 16, 2007 I as well will be waiting to see how the battle between the two formats pans out... They definitely need to come down in price before they become mainstream. I'd kind of like to see HD-DVD come out on top.
Sabretooth Posted June 17, 2007 Posted June 17, 2007 Damn, those new players already popped up! They all grow so fast. I still have my trusty Sony DVD-RAM.
Ctrl Alt Del Posted June 17, 2007 Posted June 17, 2007 I've got a DVD player. But all seems that Blu-ray will triump over HD-DVD. Even if it's more expensive.
PoiuyWired Posted June 18, 2007 Posted June 18, 2007 Well, I guess they would release TFU on 8 track then. There would be quite some tapes. Personally I think HD-DVD > blu-ray. Burn In Gizka Poodoo sony.
Gargoyle King Posted June 18, 2007 Posted June 18, 2007 Betamax. Very Old-School!! In relation to the quesio, Blu-Ray for me!
slornie Posted June 22, 2007 Posted June 22, 2007 DVD, and in relation to the Blu-ray vs HD-DVD thing - arent some companies developing players that are compatible with both of those and regular DVDs ? and some developing combined blu-ray/HD-DVD disks ?
Mike Windu Posted June 23, 2007 Posted June 23, 2007 DVD. I still use VHS sometimes too. I'm not too bothered with HD junk at this point because honestly, it doesn't matter.
Jae Onasi Posted July 1, 2007 Posted July 1, 2007 I'm waiting for the dust to settle on this fight, too. We don't get rid of our older stuff when the new comes along, though--it's just too expensive with all the music and videos we've acquired over 20-ish years. We actually still have vinyl LPs (33's and 45's) in a box in the basement and cassette tapes in a cabinet, and a turntable and cassette player to handle both. No 8-tracks, though, sorry. We have a dual VHS/DVD player to play those. When HD or Blu-ray has a good amount of material available on it and one of our current players just isn't doing the job anymore, we'll move to that format as well.
swphreak Posted July 2, 2007 Posted July 2, 2007 You'll take me away from my DVDs kicking and screaming. Should one next-gen HD format win the war, and when the prices drop to current DVD prices, I might upgrade. The last DVD player I bought cost $60, and I get DVDs for $12-$15. The HD formats have a loong way to go.
RoxStar Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 I may get that HD DVD player for Xbox 360 if a sufficient amount of movies made of awesome go HD
MacTavish Posted July 27, 2007 Author Posted July 27, 2007 I may get that HD DVD player for Xbox 360 if a sufficient amount of movies made of awesome go HD I was thinking of getting one of those too.
Commander Obi-Wan Posted July 27, 2007 Posted July 27, 2007 I may get that HD DVD player for Xbox 360 if a sufficient amount of movies made of awesome go HD That's always a possibility for me as well. But, at the moment, I don't think I am going to get it. Even though, they expecting to lower the price of it to $179 USD.
GeneralPloKoon Posted August 17, 2007 Posted August 17, 2007 DVD, but I do play on getting an HD-DVD with a 360.
