Blu Ray, Really?…Really?

So apparently, after deliberating over it for months now, Blockbuster has chosen to start carrying blu ray discs instead of hd dvds. This decision will make Sony and playstation 3 owners happy, and probably piss off the other 95% of movie renters. If it seems like I’m a tad bit bitter, it’s because I am. Not because I want hd dvds to reign triumphant, but simply because I want blu ray technology to fail miserably. I’m not sure why, but ever since Sony priced it’s playstation 3 at $600 I haven’t been too fond of them. I feel like Sony thinks that it’s a god among technology companies, that they can price their merchandise however they want and the dumb-ass consumer will pay because they don’t know any better. Well folks, as you’ve no doubt guessed, this doesn’t sit well with me, and is the reason why I would love to see Sony get taken down a peg or two. Of course, there is no fact behind any of this, it’s just my semi-weekly rant, so if you happen to own a playstation 3 don’t take too much of what I say to heart (I still want one, I just don’t want to pay $600. So don’t get me wrong, there isn’t anything bad about the ps3 technologically speaking). As always, feel free to share anything you want to add.
