Of course it isn't; that's because I've been truthful and you haven't.

>>> "I'm not discussing it. I'm just observing that your decisions and claims about these issues has been bass ackward and that you are still hanging on to some pathological wish for blu-ray to fail." <<<
All I did was post a current article with a rather unsettling poll that I thought folks might find interesting and newsworthy. Then, as expected, you threw a hissy fit. I know you're trying to shoot the messenger, but since I also have Blu-ray that dog of your's won't hunt even if you put Dick Cheney in your cheerleader tunic to make us Progressives scatter! ;0)
>>> "You just said we're not discussing HD DVD and then you launch into this gushing endorsement of a dead format?" <<<
All I did was correct your misrepresentation; you can quit whining anytime.
>>> "You could not even deal with a simple post about Nielson ratings without making accusations like that above, peppered with childish "cheerleader" comments and other stupid insults only you could find funny. Sorry you were stupid enough to choose the losing format and sorry you were too hardheaded to understand what the numbers meant, both the specifications and the sales that clearly showed you picked the losing dog in the fight. If you're not prepared to admit you were wrong, you can't yet learn from your mistakes." <<<
Quite a few folks were amused because they saw your antics in a similar light. BTW, what was lacking in sophistication was more than made up for in irony, and if you can't stand the pepper, ...! ;O)
FTR, I'm not disappointed in the slightest about choosing HD-DVD. FYI, I have two HD-DVD players & lots of great titles (I'm picking up more all the time as they're discounted), received a $50 bonus card from Best Buy and 5 free HD-DVDs from the second promotion to go along with those obtained during the first player's promotion! I also purchased a Panasonic Blu-ray player earlier this year (with 2 bonus discs of our choice) and the best standard DVD player on the market is winging it's way here as I type this.
Life is good! :o)
Like I said there's a lot of industry analysis going on and some insiders are beginning to have second thoughts about Blu-ray as folks seem content with the more reasonably priced standard DVD; that's why I posted my observations and the link to the article, but I don't expect you to take my word for it. Jazz, just a hint: Try learning a few new gymnastics; the ones you're using here are getting predictable.
Respectfully (rah! rah),
