Four of those five are reasons I haven't bought a BD player. (My TV is not less than 37 inches.)

Secondly, I also own both formats, but I prefer HD DVD, as I think it is the better format for consumers. Save the smack talk for someone else. BTW—I see you're from Boston. GO CELTICS!

As for the Celtics, if they can manage to stop losing tight games, they'll do alright. The majority of our loses have been by less than 5 points. |

I know. Damn buzzer beaters. I'll take that over a blow out though.
 And I thought you were getting snippy with me when you made that comment about me posting stuff in anti-HD DVD threads. Ive been accused of being BD biased recently because I call things like I see it, so excuse me on that.
