RE: The Format War Is Over
In ten years not only will we say to each other, “Remember HD-DVDs?” We’ll also likely be saying “Remember DVDs?”
I have lived here in Brazil for well over two years. Do you know how many people’s houses I have been in who have VHS players? Zero.
None.
It struck me as odd at first, but now it is normal. DVD is the current way to transfer video. CDs are for audio. Cassette players also do not exist in the tech ecosystem here.
Stores do not sell either type of player, or if they do they don’t advertise them.
Really looking forward to seeing certain movies on blu-Ray on a HDTV when I get back to the States.
