This is a good example... CD's have been in use over a decade. Are they coming out with a new format?

Oh, yes. You can bet your house they are working on replacing CDs. The focus being on copy protection. The technolgy is accelerating at an incredible pace. If it takes 10 years for CD to become obsolete, DVD will take a fraction of that. Do you remember Laser disc? Many thought it was the format of the future. Nowadays, do you know anyone who has even one?

DVD WILL be replaced. It's just a matter of when, even though many (including me) will be upset. It just makse too much sense for companies. It's their gold mine. They are not making whole lot of money selling DVD player for $40.
