- Is that vice-versa as well? i.e. Desktops with HD DVD and notebooks with BD?
Interesting to see a price, looking at the high point of BD-R

- Quote -A 25GB recordable disc costs $19.95, according to the Blu-ray Disc Association, the trade group behind the next-generation format. Recordable-rewritable versions of the 25GB disc cost $24.95. Later this year, TDK will come out with a Blu-ray disc that records on both sides and holds 50GB. The recordable version will sell for $47.99, while the recordable-rewritable version will go for $59.95. TDK began to supply manufacturers with samples in December.
Got that from OSNN.Net

- im just sick and tired of that camp crap, they better develop things together, which means more satisfied costumers becoz of a mono-standard-situation and better quality
damn...

- You can get a 80gb harddrive for $50 cnd . Or a 300gig for $130 cnd. That is way too much for one blu-ray disc. Sorry but I will not adopt this tech until I can buy each disc for less that a buck or two.

- No, Blue-ray or HD disc will not be less then a dollar for AT LEAST 6 years, and only then when something is out that replaces both and made them worthless..

- Not necessarily, they use competely different materials and I'm sure require different equipment to produce. Until productivity really gets going and there are many more manufacturers making them the price is going to be higher than it is to produce a normal DVD-R.

- they'll be more expensive yes, but they won't be anywhere near the price of BD.

- I believe Toshiba has already done this with their Qosmio line, which is by the way amazing considering what it is made for.

- While more fast will show a bd-r, more fast the price will go down.
