"HD is com-modified realness, the world tweaked for effect."
Some people just like to have a good ol' moan, and it's worse when they're pretentious.
I'm making an assumption here, but he's probably basing his views on the factory settings designed to give exactly the hyper-detailed impression he describes.
I would have expected someone who feels qualified to write on the subject to at least know how to correctly calibrate his HD display though, so surely I must be wrong.
I suggest he buys himself some glasses with clouded glass and that he stuffs a little cotton wool up his nostrils and in his ears before leaving the house, better for rejecting all those sounds smells and details which he feels are distracting and unnecessary for living a rewarding life.
