Blu-Ray already beat out HD-DVD and other formats (Holographic > Versatile Disc for one) haven't even made to stores in Europe or the USA. > CBHD's reportedly are available in China or other Asian countries. Something better is going to sweep the market eventually - maybe HVD, maybe not? HD-DVD naturally went bye bye because people silly enough to buy Blu-Ray DID. People in this economy are sticking with good old DVD players and $5 movie bins. By the time the market picks up, Blu-Ray will be something people will be looking up on wikipedia. >> I never used MacOS, or Apple anything.
