Thanks for the suggestion, I wasn't sure if I was leaning toward BlueRay or HD-DVD. I'm now pretty sure I want to see HD-DVD succeed just so that you look like an even bigger fool. You do realize that HD-DVD and BlueRay are pretty much the same thing. Same video and audio codecs... the disks are a little bit cheaper to produce. I guess that brings out the elitist in you, no HD for the masses, only overly expensive stuff!
I wonder if Wal-Mart carries HD-DVD, if so I'll be picking one up this weekend, I think.
While HD channels ARE digital, they are not the same thing. you will not have to have an HD tv to watch tv off air, you will just need a digital tuner equipped tv. Now, HDTVs are all digital, since the off air feeds and QAM feeds that display hd are digital channels, so us HD users are all set. As for the world without digital tvs, you can get non-hd digital TVs. They are out there and abound at stores that sell low end electronics (must...display...tact...).
I have a portable digital tv. hand held, 35 bucks at a Drugstore. So this changeover is just scaring the consumer base right now.
Course, you could just buy and HD tv and get it over with...
“That iconic Klipsch sound is here in full force, with crisp highs, delicate mids (which can easily have a bit more meat added with an EQ tweak) and tight, booming bass.”
