Bill Hunt

The Digital Bits began as an online newsletter in April of 1997, when site editor Bill Hunt discovered that there was a tremendous un-met need for accurate information about the DVD format among both consumers and individuals within the industry.  Demand for the newsletter quickly grew, so The Digital Bits website was officially launched on December 15, 1997.  The result has been steady, continued growth ever since.  In addition to official studio DVD news and reviews, the site regularly publishes in-depth articles and interviews with industry insiders.  In October of 2003, site editors Bill Hunt and Todd Doogan released The Digital Bits: Insider's Guide to DVD.  The book tells you how to build a good home theater on a budget, provides background on the history of the format and even looks ahead into the future of DVD technology.  The Digital Bits: Insider's Guide to DVD has been well reviewed by both critics and consumers alike, and was ranked in Amazon's top 100 sales chart within a week of its debut.
