Update Leaves Early Blu-ray Adopters Out In The Cold?
It looks like early Blu-ray adopters might be getting the shaft when the Blu-ray Disc Association introduces BD Profile 2.0. Advancing technology or not, people that plopped down their hard earned money for those players might not be too thrilled.
When BetaNews asked developers of BD Live whether they were concerned about a backlash from early adopters who supported the format from the beginning, we were told: "They knew what they were getting into." BDA President Andy Parsons echoed that sentiment at the Blu-ray press conference Monday, telling BetaNews that it's normal for new technology to change and older hardware to become obsolete.
