Yesssssssss.
Don't you feel like this is just so overdue already? I realize that standard dvd's currently play in blu-ray players, but I cant help thinking at some point that functionality will no longer be available once they realize people are making the shift. I'm sure they'll want to cash in on extra sales by making older libraries defunct. Just my opinion, but I dont' think I'm too far off base. I think if they had launched the blu-ray without the "backwards" compatability (so to speak) then I think there would have been some extra resistance that may have hurt them in the HD vs Blu-Ray war. Now that they've won, they'll likely shift strategies after a few generations worth of players. What do you think?
