HD DVD players are being very aggressive on the pricing but I'm not sure if it will be enough. The PS3 at $300 (same in the U.S. and Canada) is pretty tempting considering the 2 in 1 factor. It's one of those things you can debate about until you're blue in the face (or is that blu?) but no clear cut winner is going to be decided anytime soon.
Thanks on the setup. 42" Sharp Aquos, Harmon Kardon AVR (5.1) with 5 Polk Audio speakers and a Klipsch Sub. Then there's an HD PVR (160 GB HD) , Macbook Pro (optical digital out btw) a 20 GB 360 (on my 3rd) and a 40 GB PS3). I'm all ready to settle down for the winter  |
nice I like polk audio. I have polk audio surround sound sats system with center channel and a polk audio sub. I want to upgrade to a 7.1 system but that wont happen till I build a new house. Prob build a home theatre and put a 7.1 system in it for that lovely DD+ sound
. you do realize you can put media on the 360 using a portable hard drive that is formated with the mac operatiing system? works great for watching movies ratheer than streaming
. I dont think you can do that with the ps3 but im not positive....
You can look at the disc sales etc etc all you want and make it fit in either direction you want. For example with the amount of blu-ray players and the amount of hd dvd players out there the attatch rate is pathetic. Statistically there are 3.8 disc sold for every HD DVD player compared to only 1 for every blu-ray player. So no matter what numbers come out you can make one side look better than the other side lol.
I dont think christmas will decide a winner but it will decide who has a lot of catching up to do
. I wont buy a blu-ray player till its price goes down considerally more and there are alot of people who think the same as me. Christmas, however, is the time people bring out those stupid credit cards and charge charge charge.
