A high-end niche market.

ahh.. but the same people back in 96/97 felt the same about DVDs. and look where that's at now. this will be settled fairly soon. I have no doubt in my mind. In the meantime, i'll probably get both an HD-DVD plaayer and a ps3. because i'm a glutton for new fangled toys.
EDIT: you know, i take that back. I'll get the system with the better movies. I won't be getting this until sometime in autumn, anyway. I still have time to come to an educated decision...
EDIT²: just missed this.. i think i'll get this instead...
