In the ultimate test to see whether or not Blu-ray is ready for mainstream adoption, Wal-Mart will be selling a Magnavox player for $128. If it creates stampedes like Wal-Mart’s $29 DVD player from 2003, we’ll know Blu-ray is here to stay. If people casually mosey over to the electronics department, glance at the tag, and head elsewhere, we’ll know that the high-definition downloading initiative is in full swing.
Oh man I don’t envy anyone working retail that day. It is going to be a mad house.

… or that most people don’t really give a poop about HD
when most people listen to their music on MP3, i don’t see why they would really demand HD when video resolution has never really been a complaint about DVD for all these years
