There have been several different solutions proposed to end the format war between Sony’s Blu-ray and Toshiba’s HD DVD high def DVD formats. One possible solution is a disc that has a Blu-ray version of a movie on one side and an HD DVD version of the same movie on the other side. If discs like these became universal then consumers wouldn’t have to decide between buying an HD DVD player or a Blu-ray player. Any disc could be used by either player.
Since buying my brand new Samsung LN52B750 52 inch LCD HDTV a few weeks ago, I have nothing but praise for it.
I ordered my Samsung LN52B750 model from the internet. I got free home delivery and received my TV two days after I ordered it in mint condition - and for a great price also.
When I set up and turned on the TV, all I could say was WOW! It was cinematic pictures in my own living room. I plugged in the DVD player and stuck in one of my Heroes season one box set DVDs and it really did feel like Nathan Petrelli was talking to me from the other side of the screen!
It has plenty of bad news lately for the HD DVD high def DVD format has been at war with the rival Blu-ray format. For example, sales have been Blu-ray disc sales of HD DVD since the beginning of year doubled. This has even for a number of titles that were released in both formats and that the HD DVD format has been relying on to special properties that arises, and that Blu-ray offers no support.
