Thanks - interesting article. Also strongly backs up my suggestion that Arrow should do dual format!
Isn't this getting the worst of both worlds? BD collectors can't get them all on BD, and DVD collectors can't get them all on DVD.
BD will never replace DVD in a real sense. DVD will always be so much bigger than either VHS or BD - VHS was horribly flawed in various ways (price/quality/physical size), and BD will be overtaken by downloading before it even properly takes off. Just so many films have been released on DVD over the last decade - can you imagine, at random, things like AB's Norman J Warren box set, or Arrow's 17-DVD Fassbinder sets, ever being released on BD?
