I should really reply to my comment about Apple not selling MP3's: Apple sells AAC's, which are MP4 files. MP3's are based on MP1 technology which means the difference is IMMENSE...almost to the point where I don't even consider them to be in the same category. It's almost like saying HD-DVD...

Text messages use abbreviations.....and A/V is an abbreviation.....and you use a video screen to text....and the keys make noise when you type the letters.....and ummmm....Ah screw it, I tried :)

Ryan, I was at Chili's and the kid (in the next booth) had one of those PSP things (or whatever device it was, I couldn't see very well) and he was playing a movie REAL LOUD! What? So now it's not enough that going out to dinner isn't a thrill? We have to have the kids entertained with movies...

Sorry, in my world, anamorphic video fills the frame.

I get sucked into it to an extent, but for me it's because of this... For composite and S-Video cables, you really should go with higher end cabling. Some may disagree, but I'd rather be safe than sorry. Since that was the case, I've grown accustomed to Monster's reliability. Now when I go...

but fullframe is just as bad a term. Fullframe does not indicate the films dimensions. With widescreen TV's being more predominant now, what about a 16x9 anamorphic film on a 16x9 TV? That fills the frame...so fullframe is a bad term (IMHO) - 4x3 is much better as it tells you exactly what the...

If you're going to bash the technology, you should first understand what you're bashing. ;) Apple does not sell 128k MP3's.

And who's gonna do it? The "knowledgeable" sales staff? ;) Finding someone who knows about audio (at one of these B&M stores) is like trying to find someone who knows anything about computers at CompUSA. :D

I hardly think this is true. The love for MP3's does not equate to a mentality of ultimate music reproduction. I LOVE McDonalds burgers, but that doesn't mean I think they are the best place to get a burger.

Perhaps the JPEG is now 300dpi instead of 72? :D

So if a European read the sentence "I play bass guitar", he'd think I played a fish? :D

I looked at dictionary.com: http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/definition They do mention audio under #5, but the American Heritage Dictionary definition doesn't even really mention audio at all.

Been there...well, not exactly, but one day my sub started fluttering like a helicopter. I saw the speaker going in and out like crazy! After opening it up, there was a sticker on one of the wires and the glue had melted and the sticker moved and fuzed to another wire - making a connection...

Yeah, I'd also like to know what "High Definition" audio is as well. I assumed "Definition" only referred to only the visual aspect. Even though it can be related to A/V, it's rarely used to describe just audio. High end audio is more about clarity than definition. "Definition" is mainly...

Oh man! I was just thinking about this thread. Have you seen the commercial for this new plasma TV (I forget the brand), but they actaully say something like "The Highest resolution HD Plasma TV on the market" :confused: So are they saying they have something BETTER than HD? Huh? Sounds a lot...

Anytime someone pulls that with me, I always give it back to them in terms they can understand: That's like asking me for a shirt to wear and I hand you a baby shirt. It's a shirt, right? That's like asking me for an apple and I hand you a ceramic apple. It's an apple! That's like...

When CD's first came out, they used to (they probably still do) plaster the word "Digital" all over headphones. Is there such a thing as digital headphones??? Isn't that like saying "Digital Speakers"? :confused:
