1 edit | I noticed the Xbox 360. All it needs is a Blu Ray add-on. And it would be the ultimate. everything in one package. |

Sony will never, ever, license blu-ray to Microsoft.
Content providers need to find some way to keep it off the big screen (like Hulu is attempting to do with their desktop app). Too much ad revenue is lost when it's shown on peoples living room sets, plus it's killing ISP's who have to keep up with the demand. |

| Blu Ray doesn't belong to Sony. They're only a part of the large group of companies that helped to develop it. If Microsoft wanted to they could easily employ a Blu-Ray drive into their current or next console. It's just that every Blu-Ray disc sold would provide Sony with royalties. |

killing ISP's? whatever... those 2.9B is leaving a empty space in their wallets so they are trying to hold onto as much as they can with caps. They can even afford to upgrade services now but they know that if they make the internet better people will turn away from there weak television line ups. |

Don't stand it up and choke the biggest area it has to take in cool air and netflix on the 360 coupled with the two disc package I have with them is perfect. |

Two things:
1) They can take their ads and shove them up their **** for all I care. TV is much better without ads. Time to find alternative sources of revenue.
2) Killing ISPs? It's their own fault if their networks aren't fast enough to handle the demand when customers start to actually use what they paid for. Not like the big players don't have enough money to upgrade their networks anyways. So what if their CEOs can't take home the usua $20M or whatever. |

I think it's great that the people who consistently make statements like this are folks who have clearly never built or operated a network that spanned beyond a single building. |

I do build networks for a living and I agree with TheMG's statement to a certain extent. There is a lot of money being taken away from network upgrade budgets in the industry just to pay executive salaries and other non-network related expenses.
You are naive if you don't think this is occurring at a lot of companies. It may not be as cut and dry as TheMG is painting it out to be, but it IS happening.
I need 10Gig switches desperately for a very important network I am building right now and our budget is tapped even though we have not spent anything out of the budget yet this year. Our budget bucket was not refilled this year yet our CEO just got a $41 Million dollar bonus.
Hmmmmmm...... I wonder where the money went... |
