That's interesting, considering multiple industries and thousands of products are developed to capitalize on increasing capacity on optical disc surfaces (including BD and HD DVD). But you're telling me it's not an issue for anyone except me. Either you're really stupid or you are lying.
>> and that is very hypothetical since it isn't being utilized. <<
That's a lie. It is being utilized.
>> PROVE IT; list examples where this is the case. In other words, put up or shut up. <<
I already have. I've posted examples and you responded by calling me a cheerleader. You're clearly not up for a rational discussion. In fact, your main argument against all my points is to ignore it and call me a cheerleader.

Follow Ups:
...show a widespread failure of HD-DVD to present high definition mastered single disc transfers of major films equal to that of Blu-ray (not including documentaries, bonus extras and the like which only has marginal importance to some viewers) and I'll graciously accept your point. Oh, and BTW, we'll ignore the Blu-ray Blade Runner work-print glitch for the moment just to give you time to recover from your last cheer-leader practice! ;0)

Oscar has cited numerous examples of BDs that have much higher bitrates than their HD DVD counterparts. You continue to ignore all salient points and just focus on mind-numbing insults.
Just go back and look through any of our threads last week, the week before or the weeks before to find valid points I made that you systematically ignored and replied with dumbass taunts while swearing up and down the board that you really did adopt HD DVD because of Casablanca.

Don't blame Oscar for your f*ck-up. We aren't talking about opinions in respect to bit-rates provided by second hand sources. I want FACTS. If you can't provide clear A/B comparisons that you yourself have conducted, then your advocacy of Blu-ray is as phony as your rhetoric.

Valid points? ...! LOL! You have N-O-N-E. BTW, the exaggerated WHOPPERS you keep regurgitating must leave an awful taste in your mouth, but it can't be much worse than the Shinola you consume from SONY that keeps your pompoms waving in the breeze.

If you really gave a shit about anything technical with these formats, you'd already know the differences. I've already clued you in as much as I'm going to and the fact that you haven't been paying attention as you peppered your replies with "pom pom" "blu chearleader outfit" and tons of other idiotic banter simply proves my point. By the way, can you PROVE casablanca and a couple other titles made it worth adopting an inferior format?

> > > "you have access to the same info I do, auph" < < <Isn't that sort of like the Bush WH spin about Congress having access to the same data they had in respect to WMD? We all know how truthful that one turned out! LOL!
What interests me are first hand visual comparisons; you've provided none, and the evidence you dole out is purely anecdotal. Sorry, but your credibility has just hit 'Iraq' bottom with me. ;0)
> > > "If you really gave a shit about anything technical with these formats, you'd already know the differences." < < <
I'm interested in PQ, format flexibility (region free play) & specific titles. You know what you can do with all that technical data, but maybe you should clean the seeds out of your bong first. ;0)
> > > "I've already clued you in as much as I'm going to..." < < <
I'm thankful for small favors, but this is more than I'd hoped. Since the impression that you are clueless has been growing steadily among patrons of this forum then maybe we can all look forward to a more peaceful page with less cheer-leading and bombast in the guise of your 'clues'. :o)

If you can't stand the high resolution pepper spray (Ole` resonating capacity-sicum) then maybe you should quit providing pointless rhetoric which invites reciprocal banter that teases you mercilessly and challenges your veracity.
To mix a few metaphors: You've made your bed, persist in LYING in it, and have gotten up with fleas on numerous occasions. If SONY doesn't leave any money on your dresser for services rendered, then you're the sleeping dog. ;^D

1. I can prove that there are more interesting titles on HD-DVD for me than there are currently from Blu-ray.
2. You haven't proven that HD-DVD is inferior to Blu-ray, except perhaps through anecdotal or theoretical evidence relating to capacity, which amounts to no evidence at all based upon PQ comparisons.
3. Blu-ray has had glitches and codec problems of it's own and has a worse record of meeting customer expectations regarding release dates. From a marketing standpoint Blu-ray would appear to be the inferior format; I don't need to make assertions because the facts speak for themselves.
I rest my case (*yawn* - literally, it's getting late, after all! -grin).
Ciao,
