Poll: Are dvds going the way of the video cassette?

[DonIago]

I have a somewhat cheap 5.1 home theater and a 37" 720P tv, so I can't fully utilize Blu Ray tech, but I think I can still discern the difference between a BR and a DVD both in audio and video terms. Lost, for instance, looks spectacular on BR...though I should try watching the same episode on DVD to make a fair comparison I suppose.

Either way, as butlerd said, while the tech bump may not be as great I can't see myself buying a DVD if there's a BR available, unless reviews establish that the quality differences for a particular movie really are negligible. And it has happened occasionally. As a special features peruser I'll also buy the BR by default if more features are offered.

To me, a house is less homey w/o shelves of books, DVD's and CD's that reflect the personality of the owner.

^^What if the owner doesn't have much personality to start with?

They'll have a bland, impersonal house.

I just had this amusing vision of going out on a date with someone that's going well until you get to their house and see no DVDs around..."I really like you, but I don't think this is going to work. You clearly have no real personality."
