Finally some lower cost BD drives. As tempting as they are at around £150 for a BD-R drive, I'm going to hang on that little bit longer. In the mean time I'm going to get myself one of those XBOX360 HD-DVD drives (they're selling between £15 and £35 now!) and a few cheap HD-DVD movies to enjoy.

Although cost comes down. Asus announced new BD PLAYER, for 150$ yesterdays. however, think about it, even if it where free player from Columbia Broadcast Service Who has that much use for Non recordable BD Player?
Each Movie will soon outcost player & thats WRONG.ahso, you'll need about grand in HD display device & you get: comforting delusion that your Prirate movie looked better than Jones'.(From 8 feet). In fact if you gonna record it, you'll also need camera & that negates defination standards entirely,anyway.

Blu-ray wasn't going to grow in the market without major price cuts as a result of Chinese manufacturing.
