Everyone's going to have a central digital system someday real soon that holds thousands of titles, downloading new ones from the internet. Discs will be obselete real soon.

This addresses one of my biggest complaints about Blu-Ray for kids. The Blu-Ray disc is fine and dandy in the house, but useless when we want the kids to watch the movie in the car on a long ride. This combo-pack is perfect...Blu-Ray in the house, standard DVD for in the car. We'd been continuing to buy classic DVDs rather than Blu-Ray for this reason, so this is a great announcement. I hope it spreads to all releases.

as long as the don't stop releasing DVDs I'm fine.

Although i own a Blu-Ray player I have no need to repurchase my 1700+ DVD collection on this format the same way i did for VHS.

I think this is a good thing as long as they don't price it way out of proportion. As many have said this is useful for those who have hi def in some rooms but not others or want to take movies with them in the car or to hotels both of which for the most part don't have blu-ray players.
As for one comment on here about everyone having a central server in their house and getting all the content by download I don't think that will be at all common in the very near future because the knowledge of how to set up install and maintain a home network is just not widespread enough, there will be those who have enough money to pay for someone to install this for them but not most of use regular people. I do have to say though that this does already exist to some extent with directv, xbox, and playstation all offering downloadable content, but all of them are proprietary and all but directv require you to have a home network setupand a high speed internet connection. So if you want freedom in downloading and ease of use you had better wait a while or just stick to blu-ray or dvd and not only that even if we do get to the point of downloadable content I for one like to have the disc in my hand when I give out my cash not just some download and a number saying you know own this I mean has no one else had trouble with DRM licsense failures and lost account info? Well guess what happens if you lose that for your movie downloads not to mention if the hard drive on your server crashes and you suddenly have to rebuild your library of several hundred movies because you didn't have a backup for the several terabytes it will take to store all of this HD content and you have to redownload all of it, but wait all my liscense info was on the now deceased hard drive.....good luck! I for one will stick to the good ole optical disc.

I AGREE.......... PLEASE F * * * * * G RELEASE "THE INCREDIBLES" ON BLU RAY !!!!! Its the best Pixar movie..... The only 2 **** ones were "Cars" and "A bugs Life". I also want Minority Report on Blu Ray.... c'mon Spielberg!!!!!!
