10:06 AM - New York Times has Blue Ray story written by someone with a 20 year old 13 inch tv!

How can you take someone seriously who mentions a 20 year old 13 inch tv?  I wanted to read a piece by someone who is not a techie.  I am very curious what the public thinks about the format for the few who know about it.  The author of the article did do some research.  Download services were mentioned which many computer geeks have echoed.  We don't have the bandwidth for it yet. 

I think we'll get at least one more disc format before the "end" of the media.  We still need it for backups at this point.  A flash drive is a terrible backup device. 

The author wrote a fairly good story, but clearly the ancient TV should not have been mentioned.  It makes this person lose credibility.  I still watch VHS movies in my home.  I understand that people won't switch overnight.
