If most consumers will stick with DVD.What will be produced for them to play?

Question

as I understand it the format will be either Blu Ray or HD.pre-recorded movies. What will be available, for DVD when talking about new movies.

Answer 1

Blue-Ray will be the new format.  It won the war last week.

Currently you should be able to find DVD's in either the normal format or Blue-Ray (yes you can still find HD, but those will be phased out as they are sold out).

Over the next couple of years I could see everything else being phased out other than Blue-Ray.  So I can only suggest looking for a Blue-Ray player in the next year.  Just wait a bit though, currently the price of those players is just too high.

Answer 2

You haven't a thing to worry about for a long time.  Blu Ray is meant as an alternative to DVD and not as a replacement at this point.  Until everyone has HDTV and Blu Ray, DVD's will continue to be produced and it will be a while before everyone makes the switch.  I'd say AT LEAST 5 years.
