The problem with Sony is that they were so desperate to compete in the HD arenea that they released a system before it's time. With having to know the difference in profiles (1.0, 1.1, & 2.0) and whether your player will play all the profiles or you need to get a firmware upgrade or buy another player all together is annoying. It's what's mostly kept me away from Blue. I also don't like the way they display the movies the Red camp seems more natural to me (my opinion), looks crisp and clear with no imperfections, while the Blue looks crisp and clear but there are the ocassional imperfections. At first I thought it was me, but as more and more of my friends noticed it we didn't know if it was the PS3 or simply Blue. A little research and elbow greese and we discovered is simply the way the format deals with movies, so my opinion is I prefer Red, if Red dies I will go back to traditional DVDs.
“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.”
