Posted by timothy on from the oh-great-now-you-mention-it dept.

schliz writes "Samsung expects Sony's Blu-ray technology to be superseded within five years, despite winning the high-definition format war in February." Maybe that means five years from now will be the perfect time to stock up on cheap Blu-ray disks and equipment.

    future proof of what though?

    Why, future, of course!

    The whole project has been carefully and hermetically sealed to ensure that not a drop of future can get in.
