Do you wear a little blue tunic to go with your pompoms?

>>> "LMAO...so you care about hypothetical capacity but not real capacity. Too funny. HD DVD is already using a two-layer approach. And Blu-ray can theoretically hold a few hundred gigs--far beyond HD-DVD's theoretical limitations." <<<

As far as I can tell capacity isn't a critical issue for anyone but you, and that is very hypothetical since it isn't being utilized. What I presented was for your benefit, since YOU are so concerned about all that unused space. What do you plan on warehousing in all of that theoretical space anyway, ...SONY adverts?

>>> "We've been over this. The limitations of HD DVD are already affecting bitrates, audio content and other decisions that impact the quality of releases...unless you don't mind if a film is split over two discs." <<<

PROVE IT; list examples where this is the case. In other words, put up or shut up.

>>> "We've been over this before, auphl. Warner and other studios playing both sides are using the same content for both formats, dumbing down the capabilities of HD and refusing to capitalize on the advantages of Blu-ray. To then come along and say "I can't tell the difference" is silly." <<<

Another straw man argument. Regardless of the reasons that the studios do what they do I'm telling you that we will get the same basic products on both formats that we'd get if there were only one.

>>> "Then you've misrepresented your own opinion because you accused me of peddling snake oil in EXACTLY that context." <<<

Nope, it was relating to unused space (capacity), and you're still trying to sell the same snake oil, but with a slightly different label.
