A radio program I was listening to the other day was saying that the
decision between Blu Ray and HD DVD is likely to be a moot decision
anyway. They were saying that more and more people are going to be able
to have HD movies on demand and people will be able to download the
titles they want.
Certainly there is already movement in this area though it will likely
be some time before it replaces the drive formats.
One HD movie takes up something like 20 GB. I wouldn't want to have to
download that. Even at 1 MB/s, which is unrealistically fast for an
internet connection, it would take about 5.5 hours to download one movie.
Maybe they have faster ways of moving data using satellite dishes or
somesuch.
