  As Oscar told you a couple days ago, blu-ray features uncompressed PCM audio tracks with 8-10-fold the sampling rate of your DD content. Don't worry, auph. I can't access them either. But I recognize their importance and am planning an upgrade path around it. If you think it's just theoretical, go demo some modern rigs pronto.

    ... but that doesn't mean that anyone should be labeled "confused" due to the inconsistency of the information provided. That's what I meant earlier about avoidance of condescending remarks. We're not Outside now; I'll gladly treat your opinions about audio & video with more respect than your political opinions in the other forum because you're obviously better informed here. Fair enough?

    • yeesh! I thought I could get LPCM over the optical too, at first. Someone had to set me straight - Jazz Inmate 11:30:03 04/07/07 (1)

      When they did, I didn't accuse them of condescensio. Also, I thought it went without saying that baggage on a different carousel stays on the other carousel, unless you can kindly pick it up and take it home so it doesn't keep going round and round.

        When I accused you of using condescending rhetoric it was over your application of the word confused in what seemed to me to be a very demeaning context. In this part of the country folks almost always use the word "confused" as a euphemism for folks with onset Alzheimer's; otherwise, it's used in a pejorative manner, as in a rude insinuation about personal competence.

        When folks in this area want to politely indicate that they think someone is relying on incorrect, incomplete or flawed information usually those claiming to be better informed will just suggest that the person conveying questionable data may be mistaken.

        ...But no harm; no foul.

        Let's not turn this dubious mole-hill into a mountain of disagreement. As you apparently had no intention of making a condescending remark, I apologize for taking it as such. Is that better?
