I enjoy the word FUD. It's the best description of a Blu-boy :)

At what point do you accept negative merits of HD DVD and positive merits of Blu-ray as facts, not FUD? You're like the proverbial infant covering his ears, screaming "La-la-la-la".

  I enjoy movies, not formats. I have come to peace with the fact that we have two formats and will continue to have these two formats for quite a long time. I don't need either camp trying to convince me that their format is better. Nor do I give a rat's ass about numbers. I refuse to wave a blue or red flag. My flag is purple.
  
  I find it funny that you quote the "negative" aspects of HD DVD and the "positive" merits of Blu-ray. Do you not have the sensibility to appreciate the "positive" merits of HD DVD and the "negative" aspects of Blu-ray??? Is the BD association paying guys like you to pump their format? If so, please tell me how I can get on that list. I could use the extra cash.
  - I say scrap both fugly formats and start over from scratch with a larger disc ..nt - late 08:11:13 12/20/07 (4)

        Of course you'll need a big leap in bandwidth/storage and I'm not sure the optical technology is ready to support it.

        Un compressed digital video at a resolution of 1920x1080 at 24 frames per second has a data rate of about 746 Mb/s. Just an hour gobbles up about 328GB.
        
        Now compare that to a "compressed" H264 video stream on Blu-ray in the 37 Mb/s range. Still think an uncompressed stream will ever see use on an optical disc?
