It's a FAKE IME. 2 copy's of the SAME MOVIE. One copy is normal, the other has the Video Commentary in it. You could do the SAME THING with a DVD Movie Disc also. Ohh look, Next Gen features, Oh wait, it's a scam to get around of the Blu-Ray's Java Profile 1.0,1.1 & 2.0 problems. There goes the disc space advantage!
People want to just buy a player to watch their Movies, SD, HD, whatever and have it work right. Not to have to deal with it like a PC, does this Disc work right on my player? Who knows. A bunch of suckers buying Beta Players. That's what Blu-Ray players are. They have extra disc space, but if you have to put two copy's of the movie on the disc to simulate the same thing that's on HD DVD, that's just silly.
Blu-Ray is the Better looking DVD format, but that's it! HD DVD has the Next Gen Features besides a better looking picture, Now, since day 1 of release. What a current Gen 3 player does, a older Gen 1 player can also do. I want to pop a disc in the player and just have it work! Just like with DVD, just just with VHS. Pop the Movie in, and have it work and with all features of that Video format. I shouldn't have to be a detective and try figuring this all out as the General Population isn't going to do that.
There's going to be a lot of pissed off Blu-Ray owners that just don't know this whole Profile 1.0,1.1 and 2.0 thing. When Profile 1.1 movies are released and they can't access features advertised on the disc, they are going to start asking questions and wondering why they now have to buy a NEW Blu-Ray player when that last one cost them $499, $599, etc.
I'm not sure where you get that Blu-ray has a better picture. The releases that are available on both formats are typically rated exactly the same, even when Paramount did separate encodes for each format, optimized to that format.
“An engineer explained to us that hundreds of ear impressions were gathered in the name of research, and while each one obviously boasted its own unique shape and size, one single characteristic remained uniform across the board: the entrance into the ear canal is not a perfect circle, it's an oval.”
