I suppose, that really isn't the dispute though. They have been using HD and High Definition as a marketing scheme. Joe-smo sees something with HD on it and assumes it is late breaking technoligy, i.e. the same saps that associate Bose with the best is sound.
And another thing, what is up with portable DVD players. I remember when they first came out, they were outrageous. For the price of $1000 you could either get a 10" Samsung portable or a laptop with a 15" screen and DVD-ROM. Doing the math it would have made absolutely no sense to purchase the Samsung, but yet people did it. I still don't see what makes portable DVD players so darn special anyway. For kids, maybe, but they can find better things to do while driving down the interstate, like playing I spy, 20 questions, or just sleep. I don't think they need to be glued to the screen every where they go, I didn't have those luxuries when I was sitting in the back seat, geez kids these days
