When will I be able to buy Blu-ray products?
You will be able to buy Blu-ray products from this website very shortly. Blu-ray players from Samsung, Panasonic, Sony, Philips and Pioneer are currently available in High Street stores, and an ever increasing number of Blu-ray movies are also available. We will see Blu-ray players and recorders from LG and Sharp introduced in the near future.
If you live in the US or Canada you can already find Blu-ray players from Samsung, Panasonic, Sony, Philips and Pioneer available in stores, as well as a growing selection of Blu-ray movies. We also expect to see Blu-ray players from LG and Sharp, as well as a second-generation Blu-ray player from Samsung introduced in the near future. The first Blu-ray hardware and software should also be available in many European countries now.
If you live in the US, you will most likely have to wait until June 25, 2006 when Samsung will introduce their Blu-ray player (was recently pushed back from May 23, 2006). Pioneer and Sony plan to introduce their respective Blu-ray players in July. While we’ve heard very little about the launch plans for the European market, we expect it to follow shortly after the US (some products might launch earlier).
If you live in the US or Canada you can already find Blu-ray players from Panasonic and Samsung available in stores, as well as a growing selection of Blu-ray movies.
