I'm thinking of trying out Netflix....Is there a "referral" program that you can send me a link to? No point in signing up directly if someone else can get a month kickback or something. If not, I'll prob just give it a go directly. |

Re: So what's the deal with Bluray?
I sent you a referral. Nothing for the sender at this time but you get two weeks free.
If you have a fast enough connection you can watch movies instantly. |

Re: So what's the deal with Bluray?
I for one believe that the mechanical spin drives are short lived. They discussed chips that fit on credit cards about 9 years ago that could hold over a terabyte of data. shortly after that, holographic memory was discussed.
I feel now that we are in the further clutches of those who will reap $, then release the credit card- non movable players, in a few years (maybe 3-5 years).... then soon it will be all downloaded (though a push to download media is happenning now)... Just my observation... |

Re: So what's the deal with Bluray?
Only thing holding back digital distribution of larger media is the sad state of the U.S. networks....

Re: So what's the deal with Bluray?

SO I went through all 48 pages of movies in list mode and marked about 10 of them, went with the 2 discs max and the blu-ray option (for $3 more). All of this because my DVD drive died the other day....actually the DVD drive didn't die, the IDE controller on the motherboard died. So I had to get a SATA drive, and I figured I'd get a Blu-Ray while I was at it. Of course, now I have to get an external enclosure so that I can have a spiffy external DVD burner. lol  |

Re: So what's the deal with Bluray?
in 3 years Blu-ray is going to be dead. With Netflix downloads improving who is going to want to wait 2 days to watch a video they can download in 2 minutes
