RE: Not a format upgrade... just being sold the SAME movie again.. and again..

Posted by chris.redmond2@bushinternet.com on December 12, 2007 at 08:48:06:
"just like LP, CD, SACD, etc. etc.
I don't really believe that these are so much Format upgrades as they are a manipulated opportunity to re-sell the buying public the same material."

With the new high-rez video formats it's also about copy protection and regional coding.

Haven't you heard - consumers are a regarded as a necessary evil, we're all thieves and we're costing the studios billions of pounds/dollars of their hard-earned booty! :0(
