Re: Which Blu-Ray player?


Hi Stew,

I wast just referring to November 27, 2009 as the date we might see Blu-ray players for only $49.

* So, that means before year's end. Was it that hard to figure out from my post?
What do you call the first Friday after Thanksgiving Day?, which is November 26 this year.
Hope you understand now.

Regards,
Bob

Ah, so you were agreeing with me. I thought you were asking me to be more specific than year end, and while you may very well be right about Black Friday, I'd be correct too.

^ So everything is oki-dook, cause we're both correct. Glad we're on the same page.

Not much of a prediction, since $100 Blu Ray players have been available for some time ($150 mark was broken back in April and $100 was broken back in August, IIRC). I think it's possible for the $50 price point to be broken by years end on Insignia or the like.
No, it is about the widespread availability of BDP's from mainstream Companies. Not, from the Insignia's and Magnavox's of the World.

Hmm, didn't notice that the original prediction (which was regarding price, by the way, not widespread availability) specified certain brands. Still not really going out on a limb though, since I purchased my JVC for $123 about 3 months ago. I'm sure it'll be less than $100 by years end. Or is JVC excluded from your prediction too?

HHGregg has sales on it all the time. It was $147 and there was a $25 coupon available (so technically the price wasn't really $123). Now that the XV-bp11 is out, the bp1 price should start dropping pretty rapidly.

I do not appreciate the tone of your comments. The point I was trying to make is that BDP's are going down in price and that there have been many reports that there will be widespread availability of BDP's for around 100 Dollars.

My apologies if my tone in some way offended you. I agree that BDP prices are going down in price and i agree that we will probably see sub $100 players from some of the big guys real soon. It just wasn't clear (to me) from your original post that that is what you mean, and was merely trying to understand better and get clarification.

Re: Which Blu-Ray player?


Hello,
Spartanstew, no worries. I think more than anything, this has been a miscommunication. And perhaps a misperception on my part. All that matters is that BDP's are dropping in price for everyone. Hopefully, with more widespread adoption, the prices of discs will come down as well. Already, prices for many older titles can be found for around 10 Dollars on sale.
Cheers,
JJ
