Diogen, I GET your point. Not everybody at the same time is gonna want to download a movie at the same time. My POINT was, given that being true, these guys are already starting to put a governor on people who WOULD download a movie. What they are saying is we've built the network, we've got...

Just read citation myself. Anybody wanna re-think that movie download theory? This country cant match the speed of other countries, so instead of building up infrastucture they RATION it. I thought only "socialized medicine" did that. Ya know, market forces will improve the product, blah, blah...

I just want to know if the high capacity BD50 discs are so great how come so many titles including the TV box sets use BD-25 discs

Here's something to ponder speaking of consumer awareness. Last night on Jeopardy during the College Tournament one of the questions was...not exact wording... For what was Bestbuy giving consumers who bought one a $50 rebate? and one of the students said HD-DVD. So...somebody knows...

Very nice. The BD group destroys HDDVD, it's got more disk space, it's more rugged, we can put uncompressed audio on it and NOW they say they cant press enough discs or get the price down to $200 till next year. Dumb effs

They SHOULD lower the prices. I was lucky to get a Panasonic BD-30 when it was on sale for $429.00. Now, it's EVERYWHERE for $499. And when BD50 comes out is it going to drop like a rock? If it does, buy it, it's a very good machine. No problems with it although when updating firmware their...

I'm not a BD fanboy. I bought HDDVD in Sept 2006 and only recently got a BD player. The cable companies may be tripping over themselves to lure customers but if you are following what goes on in Congress every 6 months everyone has to jump on them to not let net neutrality be revoked. These...

You guys are all assuming that the government is going to get all the companies to increase the speed of the Internet for the greater good. Whereas the telco lobbies are doing everything in their power to charge you for every single byte transferred through their pipes. It's no coincidence that...

I bought a Panasonic BD30 from Onecall and expect it middle of next week. I'm keeping my HDXA2 AND last week I picked up an open box A3 @ BB for 75.00. Works great.

Try looking at political blogs and read about Internet Network Neutrality. The ISPs don't want it because they figure they can get companies to pay out big bucks to ensure their packets destined for them get there faster than some poor schmuck who doesn't pay. Also, I know of people having their...

Oh yeah, sale or no sale...I've been getting 10 percent off....

I've been getting it and I've done about 5 orders

They have their thumbs up their asses as usual

I've been watching What time did it happen at?

I defy anybody to walk into a CC and go to the DVD "section" which is bascially racks, tubs, bins, and standalone racks near the register and a DVD that is not a recent release. No alphabetizing, strewn all over the place and no where near the amount of titles as BB. As for HD discs,I've...

To equal the capability of my HDDVD machine I'd require a Profile 2 machine. All these slew of manufacturers seem to be doing these little incremental upgrades and the Korean machines seem to give people the most trouble. So I see the Panasonic 50 as the only winner for me. But seeing as how...

My feeling is that since Warner said that more BD devices were sold during December than HD devices that was the way to go. So whether one counts PS3s in or out in the accounting (I have always said count them out, xbox 360 also) and there are a dearth of games for the PS3 then it has been...

I STILL got my Amazon 10 percent off!!!

They should've wrote it all in Java....

Can someone explain why the earlier BD players cost so much more money and had less hardware than HDDVD? Was it a case of just because it was new and they figured alot of people would plop down 6,7,800 or more dollars? Even now after 2 years I'll tell them the same thing I told the Toshiba...

I'm not a game player so I'm completely ignorant, but why didnt they make it backward compatible? Is it like changing from Intel chip to PowerPc? Different machine language? Even so, they SHOULD provide emulation software.

The music industry is not surrendering. They are going after anyone with a CD recorder. In case anyone is wondering ALL of this is about money. I was thinking while I was out about the Warner move and they kept saying in December we'll see what happens in the 4th quarter. Well, everyone is...

It has nothing to do with my feelings about GWB. It was sortof meant to be funny but in the end the buck does stop at the highest office Dem or Rep. We are probably going into a real bad recession and $500M dollars and the cost of things are factors. The price of oil, the real estate debacle...

Warner: Weak Economy Pushed Us to Blu-ray

He's 100% correct. A lawyer for the RIAA said even if one makes a copy of a CD for the car or whatever that person is making a copy of a copyrighted product and is breaking the law. Nobody said these guys were logical. They just want to save their horseshoe business. For all the talk about...
