The idea that MS would continue to make a 360 HD-DVD drive is ludicrous. HD-DVD is gone. Also: Xbox Live rents HD movies, no BluRay needed; "on demand" means you don't have to store movies; you don't need 1 cable modem per net device.Posted on Feb 26, 10:29
Most homes aren't going to get a 2nd cable modem to allow Internet downloads of movies and then have to figure out how to store them and lose them when the hard drive crashes. Also, bandwidth will need to get a lot bigger to support HD audio and video.Posted on Feb 26, 02:11
