Yeah! It’s just a cycle! Don’t take any notice of all the data that keeps coming out regarding the severity and frequency of these climatic changes, our impact over the last 100 years or the receding glaciers and rain forests. It’s all phooey and the economy is really sound!

When are the HD-Dead supporters going to admit that they threw their money away investing in a inferior format? You let your blind hatred of Sony cloud your judgment. Now you’re in complete denial that this war is OVER. Universal and Paramount are dying to get out of their profit limiting contracts with HD-Dead. There will be no new players…

It was ice age in teh 70s, acid rain in the 80s, now global warming.  which somehow as previous poster mentioned, Global warming causes blizzards.  So how can you go wrong with this logic.  Stop the new religion of Mother Earth.  All weather is in cycles look at the historical records, and scientists like NASA, not idiot politician.

I heard a scoop that next week you’re going to recommend gamers buying a Sega Genesis. Ha! I can just hear the new soundbyte: “HD DVD: The Dreamcast of a new generation.” I have a stack ‘o laserdisks and a big fat laserdisk player taking up space. I need dual-format players to drop in price and know they’ll be around…

Surely the talk of video downloads killing rentals/sales (Apple TV anyone?) is just so much hot air! Where in the world (apart from Korea and Japan) are intrernet speeds fast enough to make a transaction worthwhile, plus download film quality is not true HD (HD films are about 20Gb) and you’d need to write it to a disc anyway to…

You make a good point that HD DVD machines are so cheap that, given space and ease of hook-up, owning one on a whim is a possiblity.  Then you go on to state that Blu Ray is also of limited long term utility because of movie downloding.  Wow, that’s a stretch.  The move between DVD’s and downloads will be a…

I love all the fanboys who think that Blu-ray is the #### and that its some how superior because its a “cool” new technology? Newsflash, HD DVD is the same you idiots, but for less cost and complete specs! This article makes sense and has valid points. BD can keep doing what they do and eventually dry up their funds.…

HD DVD is much more consumer friendly and backwards compatible.  The post above about “bias” so what.  No bias, other than maybe the writer is optomistic about HD DVD staying around and it still has support.  Another boost is the Xbox 360 drive.  Im biased too, I hope HD DVD wins.  But either way not that big of deal.

here’s the link to the Harmon whitepaper (pdf). i haven’t read yet, but will asap. thanks. Subwoofers: Optimum Number and Locations

Your reasons for going out and buying a HD DVD player don’t make sense. Hardware bargans. What a stupid reason to buy obsolete equipment. You can also probably get a great deal on a 8-track and betamax players these days. Exclusivity: there are only a few titles that aren’t available in Blu-ray and the ones that aren’t, like transformers will…
