What world do you live on?  Only 2% of game console owners use them to play movies.  That's why the PS3 isn't going to do it for blue ray and that's also why Microsoft never included the HDDVD player on the X box.  I thought this was quite common knowledge.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Dan Daily]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 12th 2008 7:06AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on 12 Classic Gadgets You Can Still Buy 2]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/11/11/12-classic-gadgets-you-can-still-buy-2/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/11/11/12-classic-gadgets-you-can-still-buy-2/</guid><description><![CDATA[Actually Blu-ray prices and adoption are doing very well compared to DVD at comparable stages in their lifecycle. <br><br>Both the columnist and Dan Daily are mistaken; the PS3 will do for Blu-ray what the PS2 did for DVD - mainstream the technology.  Soon it will be everywhere and inescapable, and all the skeptics will buy Blu-ray players and movies and conveniently forget the FUD they traded.<br><br>Bonus: I remember websites in the mid 90s predicting DVD would fail because encoding all that content into MPEG-2 was simply too time consuming and difficult.  They went into insane detail, marshalling tons of numbers, charts, pictures, and lots of blocks of text.  Oops.<br><br>You can't stop progress.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Carney]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 13th 2008 9:40AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on 12 Classic Gadgets You Can Still Buy 2]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/11/11/12-classic-gadgets-you-can-still-buy-2/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/11/11/12-classic-gadgets-you-can-still-buy-2/</guid><description><![CDATA[This guy is so off-base.  The PS2 did not make DVD players mainstream, in fact, DVD players were already well adopted before the PS2 came out.   However, the PS3 and Blu-Ray is a different story.  The price of a PS3 is the same as a Blu-Ray player, so most people are buying a PS3 as a 2 for 1 special.  PS3 will definately take blu-ray mainstream.  And why buy a boring blu-ray player when you get a PS3 that will come with free software updates for life, versus a stangnant blu-ray device that could be outdated (think BDLIVE, the original blu-ray players can't do BDLIVE).<br><br><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Rob]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 16th 2008 11:51PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
