I had probably 400 DVDs and i never started with BluRay.

Not because of the cost, i can afford what i like to watch, but having to buy the physical copy, which i would rip and put on my storage system and than would probably need to store or throw away, sucks.

Why can't i just buy a digital BluRay? Like yes i can do whatever i want with it :|

Yes i know people would copy those asap but still AARGH...




If you're really rich, you can. Kalaidescope. But the studios really fought them hard on that.


"I liked it so much I had it installed in all of my homes."

-_-


There's also a whole section about their experience installing systems on yachts!


“Kaleidescape” seems to be the exact name, for anyone who got confused like I did here.


Isn't it the exactly same situation for DVDs? Why does it stop you buying BDs but not DVDs?


I had 400 DVDs and thats why i never started buying BDs because i had those issues already with DVDs.
