Another huge update to the PS3 is upon us. DTS-HD 7.1 audio has now been added and the new PSN Store is revamped. It’s nice to be able to download these updates over the net. I feel bad for the early stand-alone Blu-Ray adopters. Here’s the full release from Sony:

Yeah, HD is the new thing on everyone’s mind. It’s hit the networks, internet, gaming and plastic media like a storm. Too bad you can’t just purchase an HD only package from your cable provider. They want you to have basic and extended and digital before you can add HD to the [...]

So, I’ve been reading different forums and media, and it’s no surprise that the ongoing high-definition format war is at an all time high.
