In Reply to: how will HD DVD owners manage their HD DVD "investment". posted by oscar on January 5, 2008 at 08:01:07:

I recently bought a Toshiba HD DVD player for under $200 and got 10 free HD DVDs with it. I may buy a few others, but generally I don't buy many DVDs- I rent from Netflix, being one of their original customers. They have quite a few HD DVDs I want to rent that will keep me going for a while. I can easily wait until BD messes around and maybe someday decides on a standard, watching from the sidelines as BD player owners have to upgrade their firmware regularly to even play the latest discs. Maybe someday BD will "win." By then prices of the players will be low, and I will buy a quality player which by then will be a few generations ahead of the present ones. In the mean time, I believe I will get full return and then some on my $200 investment. As a wise sage once said, "what, me worry?"

PS: I am totally satisfied with the performance of my HD DVD player. It works flawlessly, produces a stunning HD picture on my 58-inch plasma set, and is much more user-friendly than my Oppo DVD player. It also does just as great a job upsampling DVDs as my Oppo does.
