i'm no expert so i'll ask the noobx question, why is 1080p vs. 480p 6 times the resolution?

so you're saying the 55 it costs to get a ps2 or 360 game isn't worth it? 60+ tax at least here is only 10.82 more than it would be for a 50 dollar game so 65.82.

im talkin about the taxes that get taken out of my paycheck, not store taxes.

OK so am I the only one who remembers paying 100 bux a game for Super Nintendo when it launched? As for the other "Failed" sony formats, dont forget that its not all about the consumer market, there is the commercial market as well. Mini Disc is a superior format to CD but with less suport, it doesnt change the fact that the format is still suported on the comercial scene. Beta Max, oh my beloved Beta Max, this was a format that people thought was complete failure when in reality it was being used for years on the comercial level becuase it was far superior to VHS esspecially when it came to audio tracks in the recordings. If you dont believe that one ask someone in a TV studio about it. I dont see Blue Ray Failing, not by a long shot and if it does fail in the consumer market, there is still gonna be a place in the commercial market for it. Do you really think Sony makes all its money from selling us 60 dollar games //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

only closed minded folk think mini disk failed IMO. look at the asian market at all pioneer high end and just about any other japanese brand made for japan or asia, it's got a mini disk player.

i had a minidisc player about 4 years ago, and it was pretty sweet. could get a 10 pack of discs for hella cheap off ebay and they held a ton of songs.
