asinine: extremely or utterly foolish (ie, an asinine excuse)

That comment from your post was asinine, period. If you honestly believe that jitter on the HDMI output is a valid reason not to invest in Blu-ray, you've lost it.

To make matters worse, you've gone on to say, "...I went to a commercial theater earlier in the week to see the latest "Raiders" movie and came away unimpressed with the video & audio quality - the movie itself was ok. The home experience can now exceed that in the movie theater thanks to digital and HD (the home audio systems have been better for years despite lossy DD/DTS)." in another post.

Since you believe we shouldn't invest in Blu-ray, where the hell are we going to get HD from? Can't get it from DVD. Won't get it from tape. How about the over-compressed downloads that Microsoft wants to feed us? Maybe those 4Mb/s 720p downloads from Apple? Or how about the pixelized mess that's satellite and cable TV? Or maybe from the major networks, all of which inundate us with those hundreds of free movies each month OTA?
