I have a PS3 and a stand alone BR player or two. Hell, I can burn BR discs on one of those devices (the "or two" device). I don't think I deserve a ^5 at all. In fact, I'm almost inclined to believe I should be ashamed for adopting the technology. BR seemed like a good thing compared to HD-DVD, but compared to what we should be getting at this point it's crap. The format is just barely above trash compared to existing tech that just isn't being used. And praising people for accepting such a mediocre step up is shameful. BR isn't a revolution, it's a mere incremental expansion, and anyone who thinks their money is actually worth something should realize that BR was merely a money-grubbing tactic by companies that don't want real innovation. I know I do, after the fact. I gained nothing by having multiple BR devices, and anyone who disagrees should consider how limited the format is in regards to the new push for 3DTVs (at the least)... BR is mediocre for that, and it's just been a handful of years since the BR push began. 3D is the next push, for right or wrong, and already BR is barely able to handle it if at all (and in the future as advancements come, it won't). We'd an entirely new format to handle 3D/1080p/>24fps, and even that won't be the "standard" a few years from now. It'll just be behind the times, for most.
Blu-Ray hardly handles today's needs and has no eye at all for tomorrow's. It's what we wanted yesterday before we knew what today would be like. And anyone with any realization of technology knows that tomorrow it will be a joke - it will be like the laserdisc, except people were actually foolish enough to buy in.
That's what this guy actually believes.
