The Blu-ray Disc Association has at last finalised and published the Blu-Ray norm for BD-ROM, BD-RE and BD-R media. Specifications are now available and licenses are for sale.
Manufacturers of hardware and media are thus able to start working soon on the final versions of their products.
Now the question is: will customers buy these products? Or will they wait through the war between HD-DVD and Blu-Ray?
Seeing as it started, it seems that the winner will triumph not according to its intrinsic qualities, but on the DRM field.
This is the beginning of a war between the industry and their customers [makes sense, uh?]. The industry wants to impose as much DRM as they can, relegating the customers to base Credit Card carrying devices.
And of course customers are not really happy with that.
So the winner will be declared depending on who can ignore the other for the longest time.
