Oh I wouldn't say HDMI provides you with pretty much nothing.

Digital video and audio neatly wrapped in a single cable? Pretty handy I'd say.

=)

Well Firefly hit the nail on the head there....COST!

It's going to be a long, LONG time before this is a feasible eventuality. Ironically, about the same amount of time that Truth Teller, Nfinity, and the other babbling disgruntled HD-DVD zealots finish mourning their loss and actually get a clue!

Instead they preach every tech imaginable whether it is viable, exists, or just a spark in some egg-heads noggin rather than adopting Blu-ray!
Their future is DVD upscaling cos it's good enough...no wait, it's Super Up-Conversion!, or maybe it's HD-VMD...ummm no, it's definitely downloads (or maybe Blu-ray rips!!) WAIT! It's SOOO flash media!....*insert next new technology here*...it will go on and on!

The TRUTH is they have a bloody nose and refuse to wipe it! Grow up! swallow what little pride you seem to have left, and actually enjoy HD movies.

I don't think anyone gives a toss any more whether you choose to adopt Blu-ray or not!

@Truth Teller

"There's no rant here, it's just the very plain & obvious truth."

TT, no offence, but we've been reading your trolling misinformed shit "rants" on here for over 6 months now....at least!

It's not as if you've typed anything new...or constructive...or worthy of discussion! It's the same old recycled garbage over and over and over again!

Well maybe if you didn't type so much delusional crap then you wouldn't leave yourself wide open!

Oh and I'm sure you can fit some more expletives into your posts. Ha, no wonder the mods here delete the majority of them!

@HD4ME

"primarily because they didn't fight as dirty as the opposition, didn't get involved in shady back room deals and corruption"

LOL! How nieve you are!

Truth Teller, you're talking sh1t as usual!

Asda is STILL selling Blu-ray instore so stop spreading lies (pffft like you won't)!

HD4ME displays his usual lack of knowledge of how business' work in the real world.

I'm starting to run out of tissues.

HD4ME, Another?

What? Another post from Austin without mentioning "Project Hydra"?!? Gee! ....or has your FUD website shrine dried up for information?

I see your "friends theory" about the victory of HD DVD didn't hold much water! Neither do your frequent conspiracy comments tbh.

See post above...
