In Reply to: That's fine, the early adopters can pay that premium price. posted by oscar on August 21, 2007 at 08:28:57:
We go through this discussion every time a new technology reaches the market with competing formats.
There is nothing specific to Blu-ray or HD DVD that is innately more expensive than DVD and nothing about either format that makes it more expensive than the other in the long run. It's as Oscar said: early adopters pay a premium. Prices have come down really fast.
