I don't understand what it is you're asking me to do.
Are you asking me to pretend I was an HD DVD supporter on that panel and argue for HD DVD? I can't, I don't see any benefits to the technology at all. None, zip, nada.
I give it credit for launching so well, but that's about it.

Lee - what is it you are asking?

If I was on that panel I would call for Universal and Toshiba to support Blu-ray and to end the format war.

You really think they would have wanted me on the panel?

Well according to your numbers . . the difference is about 7% in BD's favor . . . and you consider this important or even revelant? Don't bother answering . . of course you do . . you are a BD Zealot.

So how about MY question above. Been almost 4 hours now.

Very admirable. Just give up future millions and maybe billions. Guess no one on the panel asked the BDA studios to do the same thing. Guess they didn't want to get laughed at.

So how is that list coming for the benefits of HD DVD. I have answered all your questions and you have failed to answer mine except with a Fairy Tale.

Lee - what is it you are asking?
You took Robert from VE to task because you claimed he wasn't neutral. Even added a to your post.

So either you can do better than he did. Or you are just complaining and admonishing him because he didn't say anything about BD (he does sell BD players) being a dealer of both - who happens to favor HD DVD.

He favors HD DVD and you favor BD . . and he is wrong and you are right.

From what logic did this that spring from?

I'm sorry but saying the difference in overall reviews as being "irrelevant" is not answering the question as to why HD DVD is not leading in PQ when we were told so many times that HD DVD has better PQ than Blu-ray and as the last few pages have shown, continue to see these myths.

Yeah, its a good sampling. It would be nice to know the background of each of the reviewers though too.

Regardless, the difference is negligible. And the mass market will not care about any difference this minimal.

LOL.. you're funny.

Read some of the blu-ray fanboy postings. Its far from facts. Mostly speculation and other ridiculous arguments.. Just look at how excited blu-ray fanboys are over 300 being a better seller on blu-ray. Wow... its shocking how the format with more players actually sells more copies.. who would've thought that would happen?

Hello, Mork calling Ork, come in please.

I do not see any advantages to HD DVD. I am not neutral.
I support Blu-ray only.

What are you going on about Lee? You've become discombobulated.

Facts? LOL, far from it, Blu-Ray is responsible for several false claims, telling the media that they've won the format war. Well, far from it. You don’t see Toshiba making false claims like that.

This HD format WAR will be around for a long time. The DVD industry is quite small, where as the PC Computer industry makes 5+ times more, and we still have not seen a wide spread of HD players in our computers & notebooks.

If you ask me, 3 ways which will spell the end to this war and that is by the Personal Computer, Universal is not longer exclusive to HD DVD & if Warner & Paramount become exclusive to HD DVD..

HD DVD & Blu-Ray both have there unique benefits period. Both formats have there up’s & downs.

Thanks!

You can at least go to most of the sites and see how is doing the reviewing and on what equipment.

HDD and HTS all have pretty sweet set-ups.

So you believe 7% is worthy of all this fuss about BD having better PQ?

OK. Can't do it. I understand. Funny I could easily do it if someone asked me the benefits of BD. But I won't even consider it asked until you can first do it with HD DVD.

And I only support HD DVD
