"Shhhiiiiiilllllllll......"
Has anyone else noticed that bubblebathgirl and BluCanada work in shifts and respeat the same figures ad nauseam? Bubblebath, we all agree that Blu-ray has sold more discs this year than HD DVD. I agreed with you on that.
And why am I arguing with a Sony shill? Sorry, folks. Force of habit.

LOL, dguisinger, JSWELL asked for MY opinion - are you jealous that he didn't ask for yours? is that where the anger comes from?
and i believe it was you that keeps telling me to leave ... seems you are the one afraid of discussion.
and ultimately, it is you who are trolling for me ... which is kinda sad really.

John,
Great news!!!
Found the source of that shilling sound...
From Wiki:
In marketing, shills are often employed to assume the air of satisfied customers and give testimonials to the merits of a given product. That Ad was a trajedy

John,
Notice how quickly one came on after the other. I kinda wish it showed us what IP addresses postings came from.

You guys make me laugh. This is a consumer based product. whats cheap will be sold has happen in the past with cars,video games, TVs Anyone rememeber what Vizo did to the flat screen market. Disk sales are not it. Standalone unites are my parents are not going to by a PS3 to get a BluRay... I have said it before and will say it again. MOST STANDALONE UNITS WIN. THIS MEANS AFFORDABILITY WITH WAL-Mart and Venture electronics now making HDDVD player 150.00 dollar players are coming close this month or next.. Maybe 125. for Christmas or Tax time.. Who will sway these movie comies the Camp with the most stand alone players Period.. Bine doing tech futures for 8 years cheap sells. Its not always for the best but its the truth. You watch......
As a tech head and a early adaptor like you women and men. You are passionite about whot you invested in. Get over it. As I said before we on this forum will not end this war consumers will. I will tell you right now if HdDVD can keep selling these uints at this price point they will win period...
You also have to look at the economy people will be tight on money and buy the less expesive player.....Said but true this how I make my money..
As for the rest we will have to see but digital distrubtion is the way of the future..Unbox Netflex now blockbuster and a nice steady puch from MIcrosoft. This is the way of the future...
DVDor HDDVD are going to go the way of the CD Tape casset 8 track and the record.
Well have at it
P.S most people dont care about 1080i or 1080p. Unless you are one of use or there would be millions of people on the foroum

hey jackfrost have you bothered looking at the stats ... oh wait, if you did you'd see that HD DVD is being outsold 2:1 by Blu-ray ... so I guess the masses have spoken?
Do you need a tissue?
