Looking for Pro-HD-DVD articles/reviews


Can anyone point me to some magazine and/or Internet articles/reviews that are “Pro-HD-DVD”? Specifically, I was looking for write-ups comparing HD-DVD and Blu-ray, but favoring HD-DVD.


Many thanks.

Many thanks.

Any head-head with the original Sony Mpeg2 discs should be decidedly HD-DVD favorable.

Outside of that, the only difference from what I've seen is price unless you want to get into mandatory specs for sound.

For the record, not thread-crapping, I own an HD-DVD addon for my 360, probably will buy into BR down the line too unless things change...

I'm not sure why you'd want information that's skewed one way or the other, but I like this site:

Why would you want information skewed to one side ? Wouldn't you want the source to be imparcial and report the facts. If you want to buy the HD-DVD no mater what then I would just go out and buy one. I would not base my purchase based on a site that is biased towards one side or the other. While I plan on purchasing a blu-ray player soon I also own a Toshiba HD-A1 and have been very impressed with the HD video quality especially for $500.

Well, he may be more interested in the way those articles are written, rather than the actual content.



Jay's Movie Blog - A movie-viewing diary.
Transplanted Life: Sci-fi soap opera about a man placed in a new body, updated two or three times a week.
Trading Post Inn - Another gender-bending soap, with different collaborators writing different points of view.


"What? Since when was this an energy ball movie?" - Overheard during a screening of Takashi Miike's Dead Or Alive
"What the hell religion are you people?" - Overheard during the Captain Marvel serial at SF/29

Many thanks.

This makes no sense...why would you want this information...to justify a purchase you made or plan on making soon?



Takin it easy....

Maybe he just wants articles to help him explain why HD DVD is better than blu-ray.

Trying to get affirmation for his own decision or a decision to be made in the future by himself or a friend maybe? I know I do the same myself on occasion ;-)
