Blu-Ray: Let's Postpone It Once More...
The Blu-Ray laser story is turning into a real "farce". Recently, SONY Pictures confirmed that the first HD movies on BD media will be available on June 20th (as expected), but yesterday SONY Hardware Division announced that the introduction of BD players will be (once more) postponed. Now, the expected date is August 15th. Soon SONY will be as bad as Microsoft with Vista to predict official release date...
In addition, Pioneer and other BD devices manufacturers will also be late, so in June we might see the first HD movies on BD media without any players to watch them...
The reason behind this "farce" finds its roots in the marketing war launched by both sides trying to convince customers and Movie Majors that they will be the first to introduce Blu-Ray laser-based media and devices... of course at the end, while trying to sell the moon you end up facing realities...and of course it does not look serious…
