Here's why HD Media will fail in the mass market
Posted by racerguy on December 20, 2007 at 17:31:13:
Just saw a Disney Video ad on TV, touting three Disney releases for the holiday season:
High School Musical II - available on DVD and Blu-ray
Santa Clause III - available on DVD and Blu-ray
Jungle Book - available only on DVD (no plans to put it on Blu-ray)
Why? Why put the crap on Blu-ray, and leave the good one out? For crying out loud, why? Jungle Book is something people would actually buy for a home video library. The other two are movies that families might rent once out of the $1 rental machine at McDonalds. No one in their right mind is actually going to spend $20+ on one of these.
Dumb. Truly dumb.
