just putting forth my views on the off chance they will not be misconstrued. It's not about whether the formats will be mass-marketed. It's not even about how long the format will be marketed at all.

Both of which are hypothetical points right now with no one having a real crystal ball.

It's about the HT experience and the quality. It's also about choosing which of the formats to support. Supporting both sends the wrong message to the industry which then works against a) mass market adoption and b) aligned studio support, by virtue of continuing down a path of competing sides. Once the better choice is clear, why mess around? No good reason.

For some people, sure. For you, apparently not.

I wonder if it's possible for you to understand that within just a few sentences in the same post, you have contradicted yourself? Probably not.

Oh, I agree. Once the better choice is clear, there will be no reason to "mess around." However, the choice is not yet clear - at least not in the real world.
- nope. Otherwise you wouldn't have adopted SACD or DVD-A - Jazz Inmate 16:21:50 09/29/07 (0)
  Don't get angry. LOL
