Aren't these supposed to be available about now? Anyone seen them around. Hopefully it will fall flat on its kisser. Also, we don't need more disposable stuff in the landfill.

Bad, bad, bad... I hope this never comes to fruition, or if it does, that it dies immediately. Same fate as DivX

I see this disposable media dying quickly. They're calling it EZ-D. There was a recent article of it in Sound&Vision mag, Sept. issue. Apparently it's a joint venture between Flexplay Technologies and GE Plastics. They're making the discs so that it would be unreadable (it turns black) 48 hours after it's removed from its package and exposed to air. Flexplay is saying it will last for a year unopened and can be made to expire 6 to 60 hours after opening.
I think it's a waste of money as retailers are saying it will initially cost $7 US ($10 CDN). They are saying that Special Features and bonus materials wouldn't be included either in these EZ-D's. The only benefit of this is that you wouldn't have to return it. The only place of retail that I could see this successful is at airports where they rent out portable DVD players, or when these type of players penetrate the masses.
At half the cost I could rent the movie (DVD). If I am patient and can wait longer, I can buy the movie previously viewed at Blockbuster or Rogers Video for the same cost on DVD ($10 CDN).

Hi there,
I've been looking into upgrading my CD player, now that I realize bits aren't just bits and that the CD player makes a difference, and all the Rotel models I've seen touted as top quality are single disc players (ie. RCD-991, RCD-1072, the Michi CD player, etc).
But... -

I popped in SS yesterday for the first time in over a year. I don't even watch or follow car racing. But, you have to get pumped about this sport when watching this disc.
The audio on this disc will put every part of the sound spectrum through it's paces. And the numerous pans through...
