weaktwosThis is why Blu-ray is pissing me off.
A special edition of Robocop is coming out on regular DVD, but they are releasing the Blu-ray without those extras. At least so far. Maybe they'll change their tune. This after HD is able to offer a number of fun PIP Extras on their dvds. To be fair, there are a lot of older movies being released on HD-DVD that are meager on extra features, too. But nothing seems to coming out on Blu-ray, wherase 300, Heroes Season 1, and other movies are offering some fun special features.
In other news, my macbook magsafe power adaptor has shown signs of current overload and some melting of the cable just near the power brick portion of the adaptor. Not happy. But, thankfully, this is the first time I've had to replace my power adaptor. Still, I'm not pleased. And would you believe all the places near me are sold out? However, Serendipity is mine, for a Best Buy near an event I'll be going to out in Rocklin, CA tonight has it in stock.
Work is reasonable. We had a bit of a long meeting today, but there was much smartassery had behind the scenes. All was well.
I hope your Fridays are going well!

Date: 2007-09-14 09:05 pm (UTC)My plan is not to buy either format excessively. I'll rent from Netflix. But I did buy Season 1 of Heroes. :-)
Now there will be some releases in Blu-ray around the holiday time frame that will have some interesting features, but not nearly as much. So it seems that Blu-ray is a sleeping giant that is not living up to its potential. What remains to be seen is whether the new features for Blu-ray will be playable on the Ps3, or if you need to buy a higher end device to really enjoy the capabilities.
