"...you would pretend a disparity of 20 gigs is irrelevant..." - Any musician will tell you...

... that having 20 more gigs lined up doesn't matter if the seats are empty. ;0)

Never intended to, Michael Bay is the guy YOU look up to for validation.

>>> "Running to avs and finding links is a poor substitute." <<<

It was much easier, a quick Google search located a whole bunch; I just posted one at random to prove a point.

>>> "Continue to wave your pompoms for HD DVD (see how easy it is to engage in your idiotic rhetoric?)." <<<

Please, try to make your case; so far all you've succeeded in accomplishing is a display of hyperbole, innuendo and subjective bias. FTR, I never denounced Blu-ray or stated unequivocally that HD-DVD is the only solution because I believe that both formats show promise and both have limitations.

My criticisms target the arrogant, knuckle-headed cheer-leaders who carpet bomb this site with every scrap of Blu-ray propaganda that they come across trying to convince folks that being a fan-boy for SONY makes their choices superior. Instead of doing cartwheels for blue disc why don't you demonstrate a little maturity (for once) and admit that both formats have pros and cons, and that HD-DVD may even provide greater flexibility for some consumer applications than Blu-ray?

Since the difference in picture quality is negligible folks will select either or both for a variety of practical reasons that are in sync with their personal viewing habits, format capacity notwithstanding. A prediction: As more dual format players arrive on the market and the hardware drops in price the anal retentive pompom bearers will look about as silly as Rudy Giuliani in drag.
