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

To be fair, there is a "cost" associated with Blu-ray players...

such cost being justified only by the release of a sufficient number of interesting titles available on Blu-ray and not on HD DVD. For a Sci-Fi fan, HD DVD offers "Serenity", Star Trek TOS, and other catalog gems; In contrast, Blu-ray can offer only "Stargate" , "Close Encounters of the Third Kind", "AVP" (only titles which comes to mind at the moment) and "Sunshine" is coming out Tuesday.... plus a bunch of Comic book drek ("Underworld", "Spiderman", "Fantastic Four", "X-Men" er.... um.... come to think of it... seems there might be quite a few good reasons to invest in a Blu-ray player for the discerning movie watcher....

Those profile 1.0 players (or what's left of them) should be real cheap in the next few months as the 1.1 players start to appear to replace them.... After all, what "discerning movie watcher" would give a hoot about IME/PIP ?
