My computer at home only has .9 terabytes for a hard drive. Well actually it is three hard drives which are ~= to that number.

The reason Blu-Ray isn't gonna take, can be summed up in three letters.

D.R.M.

And if they proceed with the original concept of locking the discs to a specific player when first used (by deleting and overwriting part of the disc)

Then I highly doubt Video and Game rental places will be willing, or capable, of viewing the format with anything but disgust.

I'll stick with straight DVD, thanks.

Why would anyone want to go Blu when Serenity is on HD-DVD? ;)

Blu-Ray is most certainly winning the fromat war, in terms of sales, and PR (with the debacle over HD-DVD/DVD combo disks). But I won't be jumping in for a good long while, if ever.

Keep in mind - VHS still outsells both HD formats combined, and movies aren't even released on VHS anymore.

Blue Rays are what you get from a Blue Sun. :)
