Hell, I remember Patricia Barry when I was a teenager as she appeared on my sister's favorite soap opera "Days of Our Lives" and I think she appeared on a couple more such shows. One summer as I was recovering from a football injury I had to endure such shows on TV. I didn't mind it much as my sister waited on me hand and foot. A very attractive woman.
I’m bowing out of this conversation because the hostility is a bit more than I’m comfortable with. I am truly delighted to hear than some WAC iTunes files have been upgraded to the new masters. And If George declared that a title was simultaneously being released on iTunes with the same master as Blu-ray, then he certainly would have known what he was talking about.
Hostility??? Come on, Mark! There is no hostility towards you. You're not Warner. If you don't want to continue this discussion that's fine, but don't place it as being hostile towards you. Listen, I don't mince words, but I wasn't as upset as you think I was about these HD streams. I don't like it and it pisses me off about Warner's practices, but that's a long way from being hostile towards anybody including Warner. One of the problems with communicating through a forum like ours without face to face contact is that communication can be misinterpreted very easily. Forums and boards communication is even more difficult than just talking to someone over the phone because there is little inflection with written posts that you can easily pick up with the spoken word.
Perhaps because I have a large digital library, but a much larger disc library that I'm running out of storage room for. I'd already made the decision to shift some of my purchases away from discs due to the issue I'm currently having with storage. That doesn't mean I'm happy that Paramount isn't releasing more discs, but it's not my main concern right now especially when I bought a HD digital stream from iTunes that upgraded to 4K/Dolby Vision for only $4.99. If you have a problem with Paramount not releasing titles on disc then have at it. As far as my anger towards Warner, well that has dissipated some since last night with some sleep and just a better mood in general.
Right, favorite films with repeat viewing values I want on disc. Some blind buys or films I like, but don't love which means I might watch once in five years or so, I'm satisfied with digital especially if they're 4K digital versus Blu-ray. The same for titles only released on DVD that look like a BD release is not looking promising, but have HD digital available right now. Of course, the digital pricing has to be right.
And, naturally, when we buy these digital releases, we practically ASSURE that a Blu-ray will soon be forthcoming!The same for titles only released on DVD that look like a BD release is not looking promising, but have HD digital available right now. Of course, the digital pricing has to be right.
Man, I want to tell you,And, naturally, when we buy these digital releases, we practically ASSURE that a Blu-ray will soon be forthcoming!
My latest affliction to upgrade fever is running real hot. I'm formulating my plan now to upgrade my home office HT. I'm about done with which equipment I'm going to purchase. The TCL 6 Series is out of the running as I'm worried about their inconsistent build quality. I don't want to be changing out displays like some people have with this model after having it for a few weeks or so. Furthermore, I don't want to have any buyer remorse for buying some piece of equipment that I wasn't sure about in the first place.
I greatly admire that he fesses up to his gaffe.
Eddie appears to be a stand-up guy so that doesn't surprise me. I wouldn't call it a gaffe, but it would have been nice if he mentioned him.
As I stated in other threads, I finally bought my new HT equipment to upgrade my second HT in my home office. I lose 3-D by replacing that old Panny, but I never watch 3-D in my home office anyway as I do with my main HT and my bedroom HT.
Right now, Polk speakers that were replaced by Paradigm and KEF speakers from my other home theater locations, but they won't be for long. As soon as I get the new equipment including the TV stand in place, I will be upgrading my speakers with even new speaker wiring. I want to see everything in place before I make a final decision as I may want some speakers with a smaller footprint. I got the new receiver in place so I've been playing around with that all day. However, I got some other projects going on in my house so I won't have my other new stuff in place for another ten days.
