So far it's only popular with the techies and the first adopters. Will the average Netflix consumer switch over to Hi-def DVD anytime soon? We'll see. Remember Laserdisc, anyone? I've had a DVD player for seven years now and I have no interest in Hi-def DVD Blu-ray or otherwise. Most of the DVDs I watch (mostly Japanese and Hong Kong movies) aren't coming out in Blu-ray anytime soon, so why should I bother? Japanese movies ARE being produced in HD media now, although not quite in the amounts as the US films. eg., Sukiyaki Western Django, Bushi no Ichibun, Shinobi, Tegami, Vexille, etc... Korea certainly is as IIRC the VENGEANCE trilogy made a big splash by being out on HD media (or maybe it was just OLD BOY?) Not so sure about HK, but i thought i saw something about Jet Li's WARLORDS being on BluRay? -goro- |
