"Finally, something on Blu-ray of interest to serious, hard-core classic rock fans ..."

was a subjective opinion and that's the part of the post that triggered my comment. I'm a hardcore classic rock fan and my subjective opinion is that Neil Young is a waste, regardless of the time. If the OP can be subjective, why can't I? If the title was simply "Coming this Fall, The 10 disc Neil Young Archives (1963-72)", I wouldn't have bothered with a comment.

If you happen to like the content is it still a waste?

Of course not. I'm sure you will enjoy the content to the same extent that I would loathe listening to Neil Young.

Reminds me of when I was young and how the local musicians would rank on each other when they were really insecure about themselfs.

The word you're looking for is themselves. As a former musician (drummer), I know many talented individuals who are definitely not insecure with their ability who "rank" on each other. All in good fun, of course.

True, my opinion was subjective, as was your's, but my post was intended as informative, not argumentative. - Audiophilander 14:27:04 08/10/08 (0)
My subjectivity wasn't meant to suggest that only Neil Young fans appreciate classic rock, but rather reflected the limited amount of classic rock worth buying that is currently available on Blu-ray. Get it?
I had no intention of getting into anyone's personal preferences or dislikes but ask yourself this question (it's rhetorical, so you're under no pressure): how much archived classic rock is available on Blu-ray currently? If you can name more than 3 examples (not contemporary releases such as Yes, Live at Montreux or ZZ Top Live from Texas, both of which were filmed in high definition, or the major theatrical release examples that Kal provided), I'd be surprised.
BTW, if you want to argue over personal opinions, go to the Outside board, you'll get more than your share of it there.
