Very true.
 
[quote name='gofishn']Meh, HD-DVD and Blu Ray players will be less than $200 or better by the end of the year.[/QUOTE]

Yeah, you should know. Who is the magical insider? You should let Sony know since they are loosing $300 for every PS3 sold. They could use your magical future seeing insight.
 
I found the most interesting part of that article to be that theres actually an asian guy named "$$$$".

No "magical insider" here, just what seems to be the trend. I guarantee I'll be able to buy either of them at a sub-$200 price this holiday season.

What trend is this that you speak of? It sure took VCRs and DVD players a hell of a lot longer to drop to $200.

I'll be buying a PS3 for $200 by that time too. :roll:

That assumes both systems would actually work.

Agreed--no way these are dropping that much that fast. Sony only wishes that were true so they can stop losing their ass on every PS3 sold/not sold...

[quote name='gofishn']Since I was universally slammed on my prediction that HD-DVD and Blu Ray players would be available for under $200 by the end of the year, I'd like to bump this 9+ month old thread to show that it's only October and half of my prediction has come true:

Bit of a show off, but yes I can understand why you posted. You got a lot of hate for your post. Good prediction.

Well, if you combine the two sub $200 player predictions....you got a $280 hybrid player right here. =]

Sorry this is not a DVD deal and has been discussed on the HD DVD/Blu-Ray threads out there as well as on the HD DVD vs Blu-Ray threads.
