There would be a HUGE market for dual format device since it would effectively change the buying designation from "early-adopter" to "adopter."  Knowing that my investment would be secure down the road, I would have no problem pre-ordering a dual format device today.  Of course, it would have to be sold for less than the combined retail of a Blu-Ray and HD-DVD device. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Aaron]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 21st 2006 9:53AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Samsung universal HD DVD/Blu-ray player still a possibility]]></title><link>http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/06/21/samsung-universal-hd-dvd-blu-ray-player-still-a-possibility/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/06/21/samsung-universal-hd-dvd-blu-ray-player-still-a-possibility/</guid><description><![CDATA[It only makes sense.

Then it's just the studios decision on which format to release their titles.  I imagine there will be quite the competition from both the Blu-Ray and HD-DVD camps to get studios to use their formats, and hopefully that will translate to lower pricing for the movies themselves.  So in the end this *war* could end up benefiting the consumer in the long run by having this type of format competition.  <br><br>I read that there is the possibility to create a blue laser pickup that works with both formats (LG or Samsung spoke of it, can't remember exactly).  I would also be willing to buy a hybrid player that had no red laser pickup for traditional CD/DVD's, to keep the cost down.   ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jim]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 21st 2006 11:30AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
