I am no expert on this but from my niece who archives old movies at
the National Archives, DVDs do not have a very long shelf life. DVDs
are made up of three layers of plastic sandwiched
together. Apparently over time the adhesive dries up and the layers
separate. I believe the preferred
Blu-Ray has already won out over HD-DVD. HD-DVD development has been
discontinued.

My children, who are much more high-tech savvy than I, tell me
high-def DVD will be the winner of Blue Ray.

Peggy,
There is a lot of skepticism regarding Blu-Ray's succession to DVD since
most people are currently satisfied with the picture that they get with
their DVDs. This may change as more and more people purchase HD
televisions with the 1080p resolution that is required to actually see
the crisp
As we go about replacing our vhs collection with dvds, I'm wondering
whether we should actually be going direct to the next technology. I'd
be interested in hearing from the rest of you on this.
