I hear a lot of people say on-demad is the way of the future, and I kinda agree. Buying discs, even if Blu Ray prices come down, seems kind of old school. (Bought any music CD's lately?) But, then again, I never accumulated a collection of VHS or DVD either.

In a way music cd's make even more sense than video. At least in 20 years the music is the same. How are those old VHS's looking these days. I don't even have a player anymore, and I'm glad I didn't invest in movies.

I think I definitely would rather have something like a netflix on-demand than accumulate a bunch of discs that can be damaged and become obsolete. What do you think?
No, I didn't mean that DVD will remain more popular than Blu Ray, even though it will be more popular for quite a while. I meant ... will Blu Ray ever get as popular as DVD is now, regardless of what happens to DVD.
 
I just bought a DVD/VCR combo last week. I intend to purchase regular DVD's unless there is nothing else. I still have VHS tapes and I don't intend on just throwing those out unless they go bad.

This was a war I did not care about.
 
I think that I have enough VHS and DVD to open my own video store, but then, that's just me . . .

And Blue Ray will take over as DVD will be phased out over time, just as VHS beat out BetaMax.
