  • The rep actually says SUMMER 08 in the clip, not December.

  • Do you mean a PS3?
  • I could honesty NOT care less how it is said.
  • Frank, I don't understand why the DRM is such a big issue to you. First off, (apparently) it is/almost broken. Secondly, if you are buying legitimately then what is the problem? Are you really going to back up all your movies? I'm sure your collec…
  • Consumers aren't smart, for the most part. At Blockbuster they bring up a blu-ray copy of a movie and I read off the name and format (just in case) and they ask what blu-ray is and if it will work in their dvd player. A lot of people still have no c…
  • I don't want my movies stored on HDD though. I want a physical, tangible medium. I want cases and I want a collection. You don't want everything on one disc but you want them on one disc (hard drive), that makes a lot of sense. I want mine stored on…
  • I bought Blade Runner on Blu-Ray and it wastes five disks, why is this? Do they use five disks because the HD-DVD version does the same? So pointless, it could have been done on, at most, 4. There are two disks that basically contain extras, why not…
  • I'm pretty sure, hmurch, you were the one orgasming over the benefits of superior extras for 300 on hd-DVD. And, why wouldn't you want your extras at the PROPER resolution? Give. E a break, this IS a benefit, no matter which way you slice it. No che…

  • I still don't see how having more audio options is a negative. Some receivers have PCM, but not Dolby True HD some have both. You don't have to upgrade your receiver to hear in Dolby True HD since you have the option to listen to PCM.

  • In the playstation forum, a guess posed the question "Would you rather have a 15" HDTV or a 51" SDTV?". To me it would be pointless to have a HDTV so small, there would be no benefit in the HD department and DAMN that is small. I guess I am in the b…
  • I will never buy my movies via download, I think Microsoft has lost it trying to remove physical media. I still buy CDs because I want to physically own the product, otherwise it doesn't FEEL like I bought anything. Since when do the Blu-Ray prof…
  • It appears that other Blu-Ray backers are already giving players with their HD tvs: http://www.futureshop.ca/catalog/dep...id=EN&catid=11 That is for the Canadians on the board, too bad I bought in Feb., prices and offers are much better i…
  • Wow, that a pretty sweet deal being offered by a Tier 1 brand name. If I didn't get a Hitachi, I was going to get a Panasonic Vierra. If more companies follow suit, a lot of people will have Blu-Ray without spending any extra money. Not too shabby.
