Hi there folks. Media streaming is a fairly new concept to me, but something I'm surprised isn't taking over the world right now. Wouldn't everyone (if they knew how) like to play anything from their computer on their living room AV system? Especially, as most of us have our music stored on our...

I'm hoping to get some clarification. The XBR10 is an edge-lit, white LED, 1080P wireless TV. Is it the official replacement of the XBR8? If so, it would confirm that Sony has abandoned its local-dimming, Tri-Luminous, LED technology. If this is the next generation of Sony's top-of-the line...

Sometimes I don't get Sony at all. With their DVD players in the early days, Sony seemingly took forever to add features like MP3 and Divx. They added them much later than other brands like Pioneer and Panasonic. Well guess what folks? None of their stand-alone Blu-ray players have MP3 or...

My currrent Sony DVD player, includes the following features: # DivX # DVD+R/+RW # DVD-R/-RW # CD-R/RW # MP3 # JPEG # Custom Picture Mode # Fast Play with Audio # Slow Play with Audio # Child Lock (Tray Lock) # Custom Parental Control (40 Discs) # Multi Disc Resume (6 Disc) #...

It's looks like U2's back catalogue is slowly but surely, getting remastered. First, we had the Joshua Tree remaster re-release. Now, u2.com states that the first 3 albums have been remastered and will be released on July 21st. U2.com | Official News I've always found U2 CD's sound...

Hey folks, I've had a Sony SD-DVD player for years: DVP-NS415. It works perfectly and has a better interlaced picture and a WAY faster loading time than any of Sony's subsequent models. (I know, I've checked) I decided to open it yesterday to vacuum the dust out and hopefully give the...

I see that Universal has remastered and repackaged U2's The Joshua Tree. Many artists, such as The Police, Sting, Dire Straits, Simple Minds, Peter Gabriel and even Talk Talk have had all their albums remastered and re-released with beautiful unified packaging. Surely, there must be plans...

Just wondering. Does anyone know if Universal will release the new 16:9 SD transfer from the HD Combo release on its own? With all the Boomstick, Chewing Gum, Kitchen Sink releases of this film, it'd be nice to have the best transfer of the Universal theatrical cut on a single SD DVD.

Hi everyone, I have a small and slightly wacky request. If have someone could post a pic of the spine of this DVD cover, I'd much appreciate it. I'm curious to see how it varies from the Region 4 version, and this is the only part I can't see online. Many thanks.

As I don't have immediate access to region 1 titles, I was hoping someone could help me. I'm looking to get a new Region 1 copy of Die Hard. The internet scans of the most recent release show a weird Christmas packaging. Is that the actual cover? Or is it a cardboard slipcase with another...

Forgive me if this has been discussed in another thread, but I was unable to find a definitive answer. We all know that SD DVD comes in NTSC and PAL. NTSC presenting lower resolution and from my experience, less accurate color reproduction. Skin tones seem too pink or orange and "pasty"...

Anyone know if or when this is getting a PAL release? Specifically, Region 4? Thanks.

I know this title was originally released in a Warner snapper case. Has it since been released in an Amaray case? If not, will it ever be? Thanks in advance.

I'm wondering, is Component the best quality connection to a CRT television? I've noticed on a new Sony HD TV recently a 'HD/VD input'. What is that, and is it better than component? Thanks.

Hi all, I'm looking forward to seeing the new version of this film. I know the DVD set is out here in November, but does anyone know if and when it's getting an Australia cinema release? Thanks in advance.

Anyone know if and when this is getting a Region 4 PAL release? Thanks.

I can't freakin belive it! I was bored and casually surfing Amazon when I found this... http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/...420866-8579047 Then I searched Google and found this... http://www.sundaymail.co.uk/features...name_page.html Any of you who know and love The Blue Nile...

Hi there, folks. I'm after a CD printed in France because I prefer the cover artwork. But I'm having trouble finding a site that isn't EXCLUSIVELY in French. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I don't get it. Artists like The Police, Sting, Peter Gabriel and Simple Minds have all re-released their back catalogues remastered with uniform packaging. It's weird to me that U2, a band more popular than the aformentioned have only their original crummy sounding CDs available...

Hi all, I'm looking to get a new Arcam amplifier (Diva A90) and they're too damn expensive in Australia. I was thinking I could get one directly from the UK. Is it a good idea? Any drawbacks? Which site would you suggest? Thanks.

Will the TERMINATOR 2 Extreme Edition ever be on PAL (Region 2 or 4)? Can anyone help me here?

I wonder... I'm an old bastard now (33), and I must admit a little jaded. Films can still entertain me (Kill Bill sure did), but I always find that movies don't thoroughly excite me or fulfil my expectations like they used to. So many complain about virtually every movie that comes out...

I don't get it. Universal goes to the trouble of coming up with a seriously cool poster for HULK, yet when they release the DVD, they put a second rate cheesy re-do of that poster on the cover. What up with that? The Region 4 cover is what it should look like...

Peter Cetera had a successful solo career through the 80's and 90's. Especially in the US. I don't understand why the only Peter Cetera greatest hits CDs aren't really best of's at all. They just have lame collections of his most soppy romantic songs. What's the deal? He actually released...

I feel 'Sacred Love' is EASILY Sting's weakest album (including The Police). It lacks passion and intensity. It sounds lazy. Most, if not all of the songs are repetitive, drawn out and lack any great melodies. He no longer sounds like he's SINGING anymore. He almost seems to talk to a beat...

Anyone know if this title will be on PAL DVD, ever?

It'd be a shame if the new T2 transfer remained exclusively NTSC. Does any one have any info on a PAL release?

There is something I genuinely don't understand. Why are the numerous magnificent trailers and posters for this movie not on the DVD? The effort and skill put in each is patently clear. They are some of the best I've ever seen. The Matrix website has every single one clearly listed and...

I have a pair of Monitor Audio floor standers (PMC 703). They have a built-in cavity for filling. I've put off filling them for ages and know the bass isn't what it should be. Should I use sand or lead? What are the pros and cons? How will the sound differ with each? Thanks in...

Does anyone know if this title will hit the PAL format anytime soon? If it aint gonna happen, I'll get the Region 1 version. I would however, prefer a PAL version if I had the option. Thanks in advance
