I am about to buy the WD, but need a last bit of advice
A friend has said I should get a player which plays mkv and dts
But another friend has said the following
currently majority of formats available are avi, divx and mpeg. You can get media players for around £30 to play this.
It is unlikely that these formats will become obsolete sometime soon as many systems use this as their main file. Ipods and iphones only play Mpeg4 files.
When the time comes that MKV is more widely distributed we can assume that media players like the WD will reduce in price big time and or something really cool with come out. Hard disk price comes down every day.
For today and for at least the next year your media player will probably have less then 10% files (MKV) that will utilise the full potential of your media player.
Is this true, I thought its better to get an mkv one
