Hmmm... isn't this a HD-DVD /BLU-RAY forum. I didn't know this was an open forum.

I guess, we all can start new theads about what ever we like. Hmm....

Soon, you will be everybody else doing the same thing, selling day and date 480p movies for $15 and 1080p movies for $18~20.

Blu-Ray's days are numbered.

ummmm....... I can't tell if people are joking or if they are being sarcastic, or maybe they really mean what they are saying. In any event, BluRay.com talks about blu rays, HD DVD is dead and very few threads are mentioned, so that leaves this fantastic website that discusses ALL movies and reviews, ALL formats both past, present and future, and ALL opinions relevant. This includes Digital download, holograms, 3-D, high def and SD. If you see any other format mentioned anywhere else, please bring it to our attention and we will discuss.

Deadmeat is right for once. 1080p will look awesome on an iPod! Besides, adding a built-in Blu-ray player would have been difficult on an iPod, so this is just the next best thing.

Of course some people smarter than Deatmeat will buy the Blu-ray with managed copy and settle for the standard def version on their iPod instead...

You forgot Ultra Definition...
