I'd ease off on the typo criticisms if I were you.

Examples of typo errors: thier (see subject line above), teh, siad. Read a few of his posts and you'll realize the mistakes aren't typos.

The word 'zillion' is a fictitious number, so what should we assume about your word usage and the meaning behind it?

That Neil Young was just a ficticious character? Check my spelling of "zillion".

"...you apparently have an issue with Neil Young's music."

Or Neil Young.

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?


While limited availability is true, we're only two years into the format. Is now the time to ask "Where are all of the Classic Rock concerts?". Give it some time, but just don't expect hundreds of releases.

I would love to be able to add a collection of High Definition concerts to my Classic Rock CD collection (Damn, I sound like one of those Time-Life commercials.). The sad fact is that I doubt we'll have a proper representation of Classic Rock concerts soon or even ten years down the road. The releases we have now are targeted at what content providers presume to be the majority of the Blu-ray buying crowd (35 - 45, more disposable income). As prices decrease and the software/hardware gets more mainstream buyers (25 - 35), I don't think we'll see a move to get more Classic Rock releases issued. Do I like that? No. Am I going to bitch about it? No. Well, maybe a little. It's just $business$ and everyone should understand, though not necessarily agree with, that aspect of the game.
