In Reply to: RE: If you like true hi-def, support 1080p now in either format posted by MDavis on June 25, 2007 at 17:53:06
Both formats continue to survive as niche audio formats.
Fortunately, there isn't a "portable" version of video for Home theater. People are going to watch video on the Big Screen and the bigger the screen, the more likely they are to value the benefits of Hi-def video. I expect more success for HD video; maybe even mass market adoption IF there is a clear HD video disc format war winner.
Follow Ups:
I would have to disagree. MP3 was not even going full bore when SACD and DVD-A hit the market but MP3 does prove the point that the public is quit happy with lower resolution and can't tell the difference. The formats failed because of the reasons I stated and because of all the confusion [eg. dual disc, hybrid disc, disks that wouldn't play in every player, unknown or lower resolutions recorded on the disc, etc.]. A niche market can hardly be considered a success with these formats.
