RE: Here's why HD Media will fail in the mass market

Posted by Jack G on December 21, 2007 at 05:40:00:
I think they are being somewhat selfish/greedy and short sighted. To me, it looks like the studios don't want to release their big catalog titles unless it will be an instant success, and sell tons instantly. Personally, I think waiting for the customers first is a mistake, because they won't have any reason to change over. I think people will be more likely to adopt, if the see a bunch of their old favorites out on HD.
