Topic: Is it time to declare a King of HD?

[antikryst]

nah DVD and BD can co-exist, not everyone can buy an HDTV

hd tvs will be the norm in the US by this year. analog broadcasts will be pulled out. normal tvs will be obsolete soon... at least in the US.

In general yes, but right now, more and more middle class households are upgrading to flat panel HDTVs.   I have noticed the trend that all of my friends or relatives who wants to change their TV set, they ask me mostly what brand of flat panel to buy, or what what type (Plasma or LCD).

when lcd tvs reach the 20k mark i think that will make others switch. even low income people buy high end phones in this country... lol

but before we phase out dvds i think we should phase out vcds first in the philippines.
