Meanwhile, back in casual land, those people could care less about those specs you mentioned.

why the fuck does he persist in posting all of this technical information on a forum that is clearly uninterested in AV discussions? gamingforce is simply not an AV forum. honestly, no ones here gives two shits, and quite frankly, it's embarrassing to watch him continually humiliate himself by spewing such technical mumbo-jumbo. it's akin to pissing in the wind, or discussing quantum string theory with the fuckin' amish.

therefore, i can logically deduce he's already been banned from AVS forums? typical.

anyway, warner choosing to support blu-ray is unfortunate, but i, like many others, are ready for the format war to be over. ultimately, future blu-ray releases will be bit-for-bit identical in A/V to their hd-dvd counterparts -- considering sony has finally wised up and adopted the next-gen codecs -- so the entire discussion of the superiority of one format over the other is really a moot point.

both mediums are more or less identical, and so are the players. the exact same blue spectrum technology is utilized in hd-dvd and blu-ray. same technology, different brand names. now that the codecs are in place, all that's relevant at this point is stuido support, as someone with a brain already pointed out in this thread. and based on the latest developments, blu-ray WILL win now.

call it.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

i have defended hd-dvd since the beginning of the format war, and i still support hd-dvd over blu-ray, but it's time to accept the reality. all major electronic publications are reporting the same news, and toshiba's corporate damage control has been dismal at best. the hd-dvd is not even attempting to comeback from an obvious death-blow, so that in itself is telling enough.

blu-ray won this time. it's over.

PS- thread needs to be closed. most of it being inaccurate/misleading information.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
