I just don't know why you guys are caught up on Vudu and hulu which are just average quality streaming services. Maybe Im different, but buy based on picture quality and forget those "cheap" features

That is definitely the ugliest player I have seen yet. I don't know why people would be attracted to this player

I would definitely say the Panamax power centers for modest home theatres. For large dedicated theaters I would go with Richard Gray Power Centers.

You can count me in on this contest. By the way my favorite CES information was hearing about 3D

I thought that they made a way to put them both versions on the same side, which is why there was concern with compatibility. I read this on bluray.com

Definitely a second bluray player. You need to be able to play all of your bluray players in the bedroom or other TV room!!

I really agree that there are some great deals for HDDVD out there, but what are you planning on doing for new HDDVD discs such as Ironman, not on HD, Batman, when its released, etc. EVerything will only be on bluray. You now have a pointless machine that doesn't upscale any better than a bluray player or even an upconvert dvd player. That is now 50+ HD movies people bought and a player that will likely just sit there unless you plan on watching those 50+ movies over and over and over.

I think that they were insane for buying one though. There will be no more movies, other than DVD, they have a few HDDVD's which they can only watch so many more times, then it becomes useless. I agree, prices were amazing, but that is only to clearance out a "useless" piece of technology that will never be around again.

I love how people talk about how cheap HD DVD movies were in comparison to bluray movies, but that was only because they were being clearanced off shelves. The movies, when HDDVD will still a relevant format were at least the same price, some even more expensive. The players were less expensive, but thats because the "consumer was choosing bluray" and HD DVD organization (toshiba) had to drive prices down in order to attempt to out sell bluray. Yes the PS3 was the reason ,but who cares, most people bought PS3's in order to watch blurays.

can we say desperate?
