I was just checkin out the Escient managers out online and they look nice but still a big investment in a technology field that is (and probably always will be) changing rapidly. But I know theres no stopping it, and believe me, I wouldn't try. A question for the future of DVD's (HD/BluRay); will the escient managers still work when a Multi disc HD or Bluray unit arrives. I would sleep better spending $400 on a sony 400 disc changer KNOWING I will replace it with a HD/BlRy DVD's player. Rather than dropping $2400 on an Escient manager AND a 400 disc DVD; and fearing rather than anticipating the arrival of HD movies at home just because the Escient won't be compatable. So will the Escient handle HD/BlRy movies like it does standard DVDs?? Im not sure if anyone has a YES/NO answer but I thought I'd give it a shot. Much appreciated. - Brian
