I have a site in the works that will be tied to homemade horror movies and a film fest.
As things are coming together I have began to wonder about the future of horror movie formats. (I don't know if format is the right word but its the one that suits for the moment).
Do you think that DVDs in all its forms (regular, blu ray, etc) will become obsolete in the immediate near future? Say 3 to 7 years away? The scenario I see is everyone viewing movies online through their TV...
And while that is what is already happening, I wonder if its closer than I think it is.
Or do you think it will still be worth it to release movies on DVDs as opposed to a streaming medium in 3 years?
I've always leaned towards bleeding technology to the point where it can skew my vision.
Sometimes I forget that there are still people that are running on 56k. Also factoring in is the present state of the economy. People just may put technology on hold and stick with their DVDs a bit longer.
Any comments and suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
