A weekend's DVD watching

It's official - the new standard for DVD, Blu-Ray, is going to be adopted by Warner Bros which will sell HDDVDs as well.

This is relevant if you're a small retailer in the field for a number of reasons. First it has storage space implications. Second you'll get people coming into your premises or mailing your site to complain about yet another reinvention of an established format (the admirable Danny Baker was on Radio London this afternoon fulminating about that very thing).

Third, if you're quick enough you'll be able to flog people like me my entire Doctor Who and 007 collection all over again...

Have a good weekend.
