>>> "So now nielson ratings are 'skewed' and 'deceptive'?" <<<
They always have been. Demographics and marketing play a role in every structured poll (actual numbers may be skewed toward target audiences rather than actual sales or popularity), and BTW, it's Nielsen ratings. ;0)
>>> "Sir spinsalot, couldn't it be because early adopters have educated themselves about the formats, decided blu-ray is the way to go and are consistently out-adopting HD-DVD and buying BD titles at a clip of 2-to-1 over HD DVD adopters." <<<
Sure and the tooth fairy could leave you another mortgage payment under your pillow if you'll just place your dentures there overnight. ;^D
>>> "I mean, that's what the data show." <<<
Really? Have you ever considered that it might just be YOUR interpretation of the data provided?
>>> "You ignore the capacity issues, the audio issues and now the Nielson data." <<<
Wrong again, m'bucko. I don't ignore any of the issues, I just address them pragmatically, in respect to their overall importance on a personal level.
>>> "This is clearly not an issue you can face with honesty and sincerity." <<<
Here again you try to question my honesty when you're the dude carrying pom-poms and moving from rally to rally like a distressed schoolgirl hoping to be anointed 'pom' queen. Rah! Rah! :o)
