That sounds familuar, I have been stating that for some time now. Even though that Walmart has a blu-ray player for around $175.

No Blu-Ray Christmas here. I don't know how long it will be before I buy anything to do with it.

Yep, especially when you upscale standard DVD hardware player can output at 1080P to your 1080P HDTV.

And the video for you hardware Blu-ray player output at 1080P to your 1080P HDTV looks the same at a reasonable viewing distance.

Only if you are building a sound room and want hi def audio would be a reason to buy Blu-ray gear.

AND, the number two Blu-ray software ripping program in the world with the latest Blu-ray protection disks is having a very, very difficult time ripping Blu-ray and BD+ disks.
AND the number one Blu-ray software ripping program in the world is extremely expensive, and still have not broken the latest and greatest BD+ protections.

We're actually going to be getting one, but it doesn't have anything to do with Christmas.

It's just time for a new TV...
