    Generally yes for both. Any company building a blue laser only player will have a tough sell.

    "While it is not compulsory for manufacturers, the Blu-ray Disc Association recommends that Blu-ray drives should be capable of reading DVDs, ensuring backward compatibility."

    Hi everybody. I haven't had much time lately to be around here, so I'd like to say hi to everyone once more!
    I've read around here that the industry (?) would have announced that the Blu Ray players will be permanently connected to the web, so this way "they" will know what's been played and who is playing....I don't think this is going to be possible, but we never know...
    Cheers!
    Mark
