I have a huge DVD library 450 plus discs with another two hundred odd films I need to purchase ie Scenes From A Marriage, Yojimbo.
The price of Blue-Ray discs is prohibitive so until they fall further to current DVD prices I'm not buying them.
My new desktop does have a blue ray drive & some of the new desktop PCs released this September inc.the latest HP Elite Pavilion can not only play Blue-Ray but burn blue-ray discs.
It is the way to go esp.if you have a HDMI monitor & graphics chipset that supports HD & Blue-Ray.
I guess after Blue-Ray it will be tiny solid state devices which can store your whole library of music, video, books in the space the size of a sugar cube.
nah mate, streaming, blue ray will be dead in less then five years
Cause everyone has an internet connection, and a graphics card capable of handling HD movies yes.
I buy Iron Man, Transformers and Indiana Jones lol it's blockbuster time !

Profile 3.0 is GO! Maybe
Technical Audio Devices (TAD), a subsidiary of Pioneer Electronics, will be demonstrating a new audio-only Blu-ray format at their booth at CES this year. This format, which will provide uncompressed 24bit 192kHz stereo audio, has not been named, though it sounds like this may be the first Blu-ray Profile 3.0 (Audio Only) demonstration.
While most Blu-ray users are familiar with Profiles 1.0, 1.1 (BonusView), and 2.0 (BD-Live), very few are aware that Blu-ray has yet another profile which allows for an audio only experience. Basically, the same audio codecs can be used (PCM, Dolby TrueHD, and DTS-HD Master Audio) to provide users with a lossless/uncompressed audio experience at the highest fidelity, but without any requirements for video interaction. Much like CDs or SACDs, the disc would only have to be inserted into the player before it would automatically begin playing. All current players would be capable of playing the disc, but the spec allows for other, audio only players to be released as well.
Once we receive more information about this format, we will let you know.
