Well they already are?

But those sections will probably pop up when theyยดve been around for awhile, when they are more common.

When one of them wins Razz? More likely when the releases get plentiful or useful.. Personally I wouldn't bother downloading a HD or Blueray release.. too bulky.

i was obvoulsy talkin about blue-ray which is over 20gigs
getting dvd9 for a game that u'll play for days, month, years is one thing
for a film that u'll probably only watch twice at max is another

Yeah, but it's still better to download a 8GB file instead of a 15-18GB for an HDDVD or 20-25GB for a BR.

Heh, if that satisfies you... Personally, after watching few movies in 720p quality, I now find DVDRs' quality quite lacking.

on an LCD they still look amazing, but ya, I found having a dual core is almost required. They take up quite a bit of CPU. I think it uses around 56% of my x2 4400

I can watch 1080p just fine with my A64 4000+... Sure the PC isn't usable for anything else, but the movies I can watch.

720p is 20%-40%, 1080p is 90%-100%.

Don't forget though that I have 8800GTX, which has MPEG4 AVC acceleration, so that helps.

well for me upgrading to DC will be same as getting HDTV for me [means mobo,cpu etc] so if i had enough cash i would still go for TV instead

ooo i can see the delima, having a DC will help on multithreaded games but as of now theres hardley any that take advantage of it so I would go for the TV as well
