Is D-VHS the next new thing?

Video Asylum

TVs, VCRs, DVD players, Home Theater systems and more.

I have moved from Sacramento Calif. to the the mountains up in Oregon and have been out of the audio scene for a while. I just got a ad from the Good Guy's and one item that caught my eye was a JVC Digital VHS machine. High definition with a digital audio out. I was under the assumption that people were waitng for blue laser DVD's for HD video. Is this a copy protection step/scheme? I DO NOT want to have to go back to a tape based system. Can someone enlighten me here? As I don't know much about this can someone give an opinion or even rumors of this?
