I only bought my first regular dvd player a few months ago. But then, I'm not a big watcher of dvds, much preferring the whole cinema experience. Probably a good job my purchases match my lifestyle.

I like things that improve my life and am willing to pay for those. By I am not willing to be the first person to adopt the new technology. I want the price to come down first, and ost of the bugs to be worked out before I buy in. :) I’m pretty much a middle of the road adopter.

They do have better control and features than Standard DVD, due to available space, but you can not only probably wait, but save more as cost on Standard DVDs will fall! Great blog and post!

People who buy now are a few years behind the people who paid $3,000 for a blu-ray setup when they first arrived. I think you are nuts to pay 100x more for to get the cutting edge but 2x more is worthwhile for some people. I tend have a gadget problem and so I'm just pleased to hold off on the first wave. By Christmas 2008 I'll have Blu-Ray and it will be worth it to me. There are the early adopters on the bleeding edge of technology and then there are the second generation adopters.

I like early adopters and the group after them, but I myself am a very very late adopter of technology. Nice article! Ryan,

I agree with you about not rushing in to buy blue-ray dvd’s. I like early adopters and the group after them, but I myself am a very very late adopter of technology.

When I am sitting in my gold chair rolling a $100 bill cigar then I will be the first to run out and be the first one in line for new technology...

I want the bugs worked out and the price dropped before I buy :) I think I will be a very late adopter of Blu-Ray. Our regular DVD's seem to work just fine and we will keep our CRT-TV as long as we possibly can! I’ve never really understood the desire to be the first one to buy new technology.
