Nfinity's answer to poor NPD numbers: Nfinity will claim they are bought off buy Sony. It is all part of Sony conspiracy to rule/destory the world. Your Blu-ray player will one day turn into a robot, rape you wife and daughter, kill your son, and make you watch it all on a Bravia in 1080p. Oh it will be horrible. Amazon sales are great. BOGO is proof that they are winning. Next month HD-DVD will have a comeback.
Truth Teller's answer to poor NPD numbers: Truth Teller will also refer to people to own blu-ray as video game kiddies. Brick and mortar stores do not matter. DVD will never be replaced by Blu-ray. Sony is attempting to destroy you with DRM. Everyone who does not agree with him is an idiot and a fanboy. Next month HD-DVD will have a comeback.
The amount of idiots in this world with absolutely no brain continues to amaze me.
First of all Engadgets timing as usual with the news is impeccible to inflict more damage to the news today because the news reported is actually OLD news. These are the sales of the week January 26th and we few are in second week of February.. so it's obvious what agenda of Engadget is..
Second of all, in that week the free giveaway of Blu-Ray players were still very much in swing.. Of course, we won't see numbers of first week of February because they will show dramatic increase in numbers.. we will however not see new numbers until they are miserable for HD DVD considering the netflix news and Best Buy's complete nonsense news that coincide with Netflix news.
The anti-consumer attack continues. Despicable none the less.
It's pointless to argue with idiots, so what I will do is vote with my wallet, supporting a much better format that actaully works and costs 3-4 times less and is actually beneficial to the consumers and all of you morons can do whatever the hell you want to do and we'll see if mainstream consumers will prefer or will actaully buy $400 players or $100 players.
Since only an idiot can glorify weekly numbers as some kind of measurement especially with completely bought off numbers and that have no connection with real numbers due to so many biased things happening.
Just let it go.. go and buy your blu-ray players.. you should be safe right? You won..or that's the illusion you live in..
WOW Nfinity, you presume that just because we can read the writing on the wall we're idiots? As for "players that actually work," I've dealt with every HD DVD player made thus far in a retail environment along with a large number of the Blu-Rays. I can tell you the failure rate, disc-read error problems and non-functioning function problems (including repeat...which never works with HD DVD) are much higher on the red side than Blu. Fair enough that the network functionality, PiP and other features have been on Toshiba's side of the court until recently but to say that the players work better is simply not the case. I recommended customers buy both for a long time, I myself own both, but it's painfully obvious that it's over friend.
Now that we've thrown 'em off the trail, use the form below to get in touch with the people at Engadget. Please fill in all of the required fields because they're required.

"they will show dramatic increase in numbers"
Wait, isn't that what Nfinity said last month?
@Nfinity, "The anti-consumer attack continues. Despicable none the less."
Funny. How is the format that is winning by a large margin in sales of players and disks "anti-consumer"?
Nfinity uses the word "idiots" quite a lot. Well he should know since he seems to have first hand experience at being one.
What a load of BS !!!
@ Nfinity
You retard, the NPD results are always delayed. It takes time for them to collate the data properly.

I just want to say I called it to the nail on Truth teller and Nfinity's responses.
BTW you lucky numbers today are
