There is no stability in the hardware and software for home theatre. How many software and handware changes do the poeple who make these products think the public will support with their dollars? 5 channel surround, 5.1 channel discrete, 7.1 channel discrete, 740 i, 1080p, Blue Ray, HD- the list goes on and on. Some of us have bitten the apple one time too many. Products are brought to market before they have even been fully developed. My new Samsung BD P1200 Blue Ray player is brought to market needing two software updates to even try to play current discs on the market. My new Sony XBR 70 inch HD TV has audio and video out of synch and the Sony does not feel that it is a problem. Blue Ray does not support high fidelity sound (remember those words) on two channel (many of us prefer high quality two channel to the flavor of the day multi channel). The list goes on an on - and I am a person that really enjoys high quality vidoe and audio. Sad.
