I can do 2 things also, but if I do I can't watch anything while it's recording.

As near as I can tell, very few things are cheaper than a PS3. Some countries don't even have that GDP.

my point was,
it IS a blu-ray player and will be cheaper than most standalone blu-ray players

It could be- I'm not sure how much my Dad paid for it.

But my dad paid for it, so essentially it cost me nothing. Hard to beat that price, eh?

I didn't mean to offend.

isn't there another conmpany out with a new video technology also? Kinda like when VHS and Beta came out? If that's true I'd wait to see which one wins so you won't be one of the unlucky guys that bought a beta max :)

ugg
I wish Id had a beta
i wish more people had
that was such a weird thing when that happened
it shows how dumb people can be as a group
beta tapes were smaller, held more content, lasted longer and superior quality and yet VHS won.

that is sooo weird yet it happened

Superior marketing- same thing happened with the competing AC Current and DC Current technology. Basically the AC companies launched a mud-slinging campaign to prove that DC was inferior.

You know how they did it? The DC Tech companies won the contract to construct the first electric chair, so the AC companies spread talk about how dangerous it was, if it could kill a man.

So AC became the standard. At least in America. I don't know if the standard is different overseas. Perhaps one of our foreign comrades can fill us in on it.

Oh, and Jester, the competing technology is called HD-DVD, which is the one I think is going to win. Unless Sony pulls a miracle out of its ass and convinces all americans to buy one.

It get's even better:
Edison was asked (as an "authority", which kind of electricity was more dangerous/lethal (and should thus be used in the chair). He said DC. Ofcourse, he was the voice of AC.
At atleast in europe it's AC. Drek, it's AC everywhere that I know where it is.
