Samsung BD-P1000 Blu-Ray Disc Player
Blur-Ay or what
I saw this player in store and now I am getting Toshiba (which is sold out everywhere, btw). <br /> <br />I was initially in \\"Blu-ray camp\\" because the name is cool and whatnot, but seeing this kind of debut gets me worried. <br />Maybe BR will win as re-writable, computer media, but as movie DVD successor I doubt it would. With its 0.1mm protection layer (compared to 0.6mm on HD-DVD) I just can't see how this media is going to be adopted by rental shops. Sony is probably not disclosing, but I am guessing their \\"production problems\\" delays are due to inability to manufacture durable 2-layer discs.
