Only HD DVD has delay's, NEVER BD! ;-)
Or should I say only HD DVD lies, never...
Movies are: "The Greatest Artform".
HD should be for EVERYONE!

Re: Sony bumps second wave of Bd titles to end of July
BD camp are having major problems with duplication of disks - so they apparently aren't able to do enough volumes yet and had to scale back the launched titles because of this, probably.

Pure FUD. Initial volumes are being so low (both with HD DVD and Blu-ray) that they have ample capacity, low yields notwithstanding.
Initial Sony slate was nine titles on May 23 and seven on June 27. If you push back first wave by four weeks, it makes sense to do the same thing with the second. |

This Rob_HD guy is obviously some kind of HD-DVD industry plant. I did a search for all of his posts and EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM was either a pro HD-DVD post or a post trying to spread FUD about Blu-ray. I hate idiots like this. They seem to have infected every home theater forum I frequent. It's morons like this on both sides that have pretty much soured me on either format.

And more evidence on how desperate the HD-DVD camp has become: lowering the initial player to $500.00 and selling it below profit margins and having to use plants like this. Just think how bad it will be when BD is actually released

Is FUD still FUD if it is true?

Re: Sony bumps second wave of Bd titles to end of July
Cool, we have an HD plant here!
And I hope Blu Ray fanboys enjoy their "stellar" initial releases, because it's gonna be a while before they see the second wave of similar releases...
And you believe, at heart, everyone's a killer...

And your release info comes from where? HDVDfanboys.com or is it somewhere else? Pushing 1st and 2nd waves back by a month each is hardly a long while.

Hopefully you're not calling me a fanboy. Like I've said, I'm sick of hearing idiots from both sides argue like 8 year olds discussing which video game system "rules."
I've been a member of this site since it began (I'm on my second username because I forgot my first one back in '99). I'm no newbie. This HD-DVD and Blu-ray fanboyism has gotten out of hand. Too bad. This used to be one of the most civil and intelligent message boards around. How times have changed. |
