LMFAO! Just watched the vid, that was genius. Still pissed about Sony's dominance in the war (I like Sony in virtually any media as long as it's not vg consoles or digital media players), but this made things better lol .

What movie was that from?

The movie was called 'Downfall'. Great movie, definitely go see it.

LOL on the youtube video though! Funny stuff. Pretty much sums up HD-DVD's grim outlook. I'm sure Toshiba doesn't find it as funny though...

HD-DVD's are just another scheme they came up with to squeeze even more money out of us.. The quality is pretty much the same. I wont be buying any, or a player anytime soon.

Another reason to sell us stuff? Sure, it's called business.

Same quality? You have no idea what you're talking about.

Right now, today, the quality of what is available over the web isn't even close to what BluRay or HD-DVD can deliver.

If your argument is that a movie is a movie is a movie, and the quality is no different, and the experience is meaningless, you should also be driving a chevy.

For those of us with the means, we drive bimmers because there's more to life than just getting from point a to point b, and we watch HDTV with HD feeds because there's more to a movie than just seeing and hearing.
