HD-DVD… 5 Reasons Why Death is Good!

I’m sure if you come to this website, you may have already heard the news. HD-DVD is dead. So the question now is, if you were one of the early adopters of hd-dvd, what do you do with all of your hd-dvd stuff, and what does dead really mean?

Well, to tell you the truth, for you early HD-DVD adopters, this is temporarily good news. Why? Well here is why…

The top 5 reasons why the early death of HD-DVD is good for early adopters:

1. HDDVD movies will be significantly reduced in price. Bestbuy, Walmart, and others are already trying to get rid of the stockpile with cutting the prices. So hurry on over to your local hddvd store today and get the best selection.
2. HDDVD players will also be significantly underpriced. Hurry and up and buy one if you want. You can have a next gen player and movies for a fraction of the price of bluray.
3. Now, you will not have to look over at the bluray section of movies with envy. Becuase now you are forced to go blu if you want future releases.
4. Format wars are bad for the tech industry. They slow down technology advancement. So it is good the war is over, and what is good for the tech industry, is good for consumers.
5. That Xbox 360 HD-DVD extension can also be a great paper weight or door stop. Or maybe pass it on over to the “Will it Blend” guy.

All joking aside. This really is good news for the industry and for us as the consumers. So even if you got on the bum end of the deal, and you were an early HD-DVD adopter, in the end, you will end up on top, becuase you have a great HD player at the fraction of the price that all the blu-ray people paid.

Yes… HD-DVD is dead, but dead really means that this is a chance to get a good collection of movies etc. So don’t be forlorn, look at the brightside, at least the battle or war did not last as long as divx or the betamax wars.
