Blu-ray is the future in discs. A Blu-ray disc can hold 50GB of data (thats 15 000 songs for all you music lovers!). EVERY! PS3 game is on a blu-ray disc and EVERY ps3 game is in HD! In the next few years, HD and Blu-ray will be everywhere and those standard definition, 5GB DVD's will be history. So im gonna put it this way for you all. Blu-ray player - about $1500 to $2000. A Playstation 3 - $999. stuff the wii

That is cheap. Only thing is, Imagine how much the games are going to cost. You probabley can't even rent them out. I love my music but it's still going to cost me a fortune.Anyways, that's just my opinion. I will buy one when it goes down. Wont go down much I don't think, Just have to wait and see.

Woah, But I don't think they will be, Most Xbox360 games are only just under the $100 mark. I doubt a Blu-Ray Disc especially, A game would be under $100. I've been waiting for Far Cry : Instincts Predator for the Xbox360 to come out and go down in the price, it come out around about the same time theXbox360 did I think, not one single cent has been dropped in Price, all Pre-Owned Far Cry Games for the 360 are all $100... That sucks so bad...

Uhmmm... Trendy Trade in Melbourne is currently selling PS3 games very cheap... I picked up my copy of Marvel: Ultimate Alliance for $65 (yes the PS3 version)...

Oh and nother reason for PS3... For all your Blu-Ray titles you can forget about regions, PS3 plays any region Blu-Ray games & movies (I own a Jap PS3 with 2 US Titles and 1 AUS movie, all work fine)...

Your right, Blu-ray is the FUTURE, it wont have total control of DVD, if at all, for at least another 3-5 years, so when that time comes, ill buy one, and they'll only be $300

I hoep your not some sony guy...cos if u r im gonna be cranky.

Who cares that ur fanyc Blu Ray disc can hold 50 gig. If sony does release RW's they will probably cost a fortune. That makes them crap.

And who would want 15000 songs on 1 disc anyway?
are sony gonna make portable blu ray players?

Well... Blu-Ray writers are already out... The blank media is *relatively* cheap... It's about $26 US for a 5-Pack on the net...
The Blu-Ray Disc (single sided/single layered) can hold 25GB so a DL&DS disc can hold 100GB. All the games use Blu-Ray and are quite large. ie. Resistance = 16GB. Movies are expensive at the moment, but there will be a price drop

ok, i think it was just that shop i went to that was selling very high.......
(this is the same shop in vietnam that was selling illegal games but had legit ps3 games)
i just think that over time, both the ps3 and the blu rays are gonna drop in price. heck, they might even make pink ray disks with 100gb capacity or even a curd covered disk with 200gb capacity!

They probably will, but not for a few years to come. Capacity-wise Blu-Ray is the clear winner (compared to the HD-DVD SS/SL 15GB Capacity), but content-wise we will have to wait and see...

PS3 has NOT been modded, there are rumors of an ISO loader already being worked on. You can already replace the HDD in the PS3 (I seen a PS3 with a 750GB HDD in it)

Yeah sony offers the PS3 at a discounted price(so there not making money) inorder to inflitrate the technology into you home; however considering the ps3 has failed miserably in the USA; im not convince it is the winner.
Another thing i read is that inorder to keep the price down sony used slower bluray drives; in the ps3; what does that mean load times take longer. The biggest detrimine factors at the moment whether bluray and the ps3 will succed will be the ISO loader thats currently being worked on and whatever is easiest to Pirate HD or Bluray; interesting though muslix64 has cracked the protection on both for the time being.

Cheap in an expensive way.
Your gonna need a HDTV but to truly experience full HD you will need your tv to display 1080p lucky for me i have a HDTV but only 1080i same goes for Blu-ray movies(1080p)Yes Blu-ray is the future but in the next 5years or less from now it will be obsolete. There working on something else which is beyond blu-ray. Technology is moving fast, by the end of the year there will be a 500gb blu-ray disc.Sony and Panasonic want you to believe standard dvds are history but consumer's want a cheaper option it will be a while before it becomes a medium.I predict by the end of the year The PS3 will outsell the Xbox360 and the Nintendo wii might suprise us all because its cheaper.
At the end of the year we will see who wins the next-gen console war in sales. PS3 all the Way!!!

yer i think its gonna be a tight victory, i mean the wii is different from anthing else on the market well sort of, but it provides a different gaming experience and i think that will cause it to hav to most sales this year.

I think BETA is far superior to VHS, and is the future of picture quality.

Anyone remember that?

I just hope blu-ray doesnt go the same way. Alot of money is being invested in this technology. From what i hear HDTV is gonna give it a good run for its money.

Then again standard DVD are not dead in the water just yet.
