I notice that Wal-mart in China is now selling (Sony and another Chinese brand, Hualu) Blue Ray machines (US$300) and movies ( US$17). I wonder how long before the $1 pirate disks are available.
Try StreamFab Downloader and download from Netflix, Amazon, Youtube! Or Try DVDFab and copy Blu-rays! or rip iTunes movies!

What happened to HD format the Chinese gov't was working on?
Want my help? Ask here! (not via PM!)
FAQs: Best Blank Discs • Best TBCs • Best VCRs for capture • Restore VHS -
I'm not quite sure about all the jargon, HDMI, EVD, etc, but as far as I know, all the players in China are just ordinary DVD players (some up- convert) except for the few newly marketed Blue Ray machines. I consider Wal-mart as a good market barometer, so (based on what Wal-mart China sells) I would say that China has abandoned all other HD formats in favor for Blue Ray.

I thought Blu-ray wasn't to be licensed to China...
China was last seen putting AVCHD on regular DVD discs to be passed off as HD...but a AVCHD supported Blu-ray player is still needed to play it -
China has designed their own version of the blu ray called "China Blue HD" or CBHD for short. It uses AVS as the video codec. CBHD was designed so that China didn't have to pay licensing fees to foreign countries.
