The recent news about Firefly being released on Blu-Ray disk is good news for Browncoats, for sure. However, from the standpoint that Blu-Ray is essentially the Blue Sun corporation, not so much. Has anyone seen how much this is anticipated to cost us? Coupling that with the fact that the cheapest upgradeable BR player right now is the PS3 at $399, and you are talking some smack. And region coding will remain a player, as was noted by a non-US browncoat in the original thread.

Had only HD DVD won, with its region-free format! I have enjoyed Serenity on HD DVD - an AWESOME transfer - and would have loved to get Firefly on HD DVD as well. I haven't bought a BR player yet, and won't until they seriously drop in price. Until then, I'll remain content with my HD DVD player and the available titles, of which there are many.

If any of you are interested, there is a Yahoo! group built for HD DVD enthusiasts, at the following link:

Besides just talking HD DVD, there are some useful things there - opportunities for trading titles, finding out about deals and discounts. Just today I found out about and purchased the Star Trek Season 1 HD DVD set from Amazon.ca for $50.97 delivered! If info like this sounds good to you, go and join! I think you'll especially like the front page picture today!
