    Anyone else afraid studios will abandon regular DVD in favor of HD?

    Carlos, you "aced" it with this post :) That's a big point about S-DVD's being playable on the HD players.

    Mark, that's a good comparison with LD and the HD "stepping-stone" theory. That may well be how this plays out. For me, I'm not going to move into the HD market until we see at least what format wins the war. After that, I'll still hold out for a while for prices to drop. I was an early LD...
