I have read in the most current issue PC World that Sony is most likey going to have the Playstation 3 include the ability to read Blu_ray discs. Thought you guys would like to know this heads up.
BluRay was developed by Sony, AFAIK. So it's about as far away from surprising as one could get.driver8 said:Not surprisong I guess since Sony is one of the many corporations in favor of Blu Ray. Such a statement is "preemptive" strike to stake out territory for the future.
There's no seeming about it, Blu-Ray is the superior format.Lazybones said:I'm not an expert, but I've read a number of articles on this and it seems that Blu-ray is the superior format (in terms of durability, quality of data, and capacity).
I don't know if I'm quite so cynical, however I don't doubt some sort of DRM will be involved, nor do I doubt that it will be cracked within six months. Not that I advocate piracy, just that the crackers seem to be quite a bit more up on the tech than the studios.It seems that everything the media companies come up with ends up screwing the consumer. I'm sure in the corporate boardrooms they're outlining a legislative strategy that will have all content DRMed to prevent ANY copying, even time-shifting, and will have licenses that mandate payments whenever content is viewed. I'm already worried about what the broadcast flag will mean for the next generation of media devices.
