It's a fairly high stakes battle between good and evil. :)

A la VHS vs. Betamax. You have early adopters on both formats who sometimes have a tendency to preach their cause often because of the investment they've made in their chosen formats and the desire not to be on the losing side. This bickering shut down the the High def portion of the AVSforum for a few days while the moderators tried to figure out how to end the vitriole.

The behavior seems to have spilled onto this forum as well. I've been guilty of it too; I try to stay dispassionate but I also want a particular format to win and make the other format disappear even though I have dual format player.
