More...more! *popcorn bucket in hand, and large oversized soda on the other, dims the stage lights* It made me chuckle when people feel the need to defend their purchases, or their format of choice for that matter. Im not pointing fingers at anyone here, but it made me giggle to no end nonetheless. huh? i thought its the whole purpose of you creating this thread .. No?

what's even more funny is that a certain HD-DVD strong supporter actually spends more time reading/researching/defending HD-DVD when he could actually have just saved his fund and actually buy & enjoy HD-DVDs instead of being a virtual forum cheerleader

Defending my purchase/format choice? Nay my dear combatant, i've tasted virgins and whores from both sides, so no defending needed. This thread's borned out of the need to provide tangible source for zealots and fanatics from both sides to refer to, and made fools of themselves defending their argumentative side. Basically, for the delight of myself while watching both sides make themselves look like Krusty the Clown. Hey, if it comes with the main objective, who am i to refuse?

QUOTE(stringfellow @ Jan 23 2007, 04:32 PM) Errr, there are Bluray pRon on the market already.  There are? Doesn't seem to be the case though hehe. Since googling it will result in a lot of unfavourable news for the Sony camp. Sony camp has denied allegations that they are banning pRon producers but apparently the producers have said that Sony has threatened Blu-ray manufacturers not to press Blu-ray discs for the adult entertainment industry. You can have all the movie titles on the Blu-ray and super hardware sales, but if the pRon industry switch to HD-DVD in a massive way, Blu-ray will be the next Betamax. As for me, still saving up money for the PS3 so I can get a cheap Blu-ray player.

I dont like to see either lose and die off. The market can sustain both of them adequately, just release same movie on different formats.

Yes, we all have principles, but depriving yourself of the fruits of your labor for principles' sake is pointless IMO. See the fanatical religious groups? I dare say some of those fanatics at AVSForums are replicating their ways of thinking , but only when it comes to their next-gen format of choice. Im not gonna deprive myself of Pirates of Caribbean Dead Man's Chest Bluray out of principles , it's not a matter of life and death when it comes to choices like these. Religion-wise, it may weigh heavily, but not when it comes to my personal enjoyment.

IMHO, i dun think its quite possible for both formats to co exist, one will die out eventually , the question is wen, one of them will phased out, but who knows, maybe the tim it happens im aredi dead by then

From Digitalbits, Disney's Cars is slated to hit Bluray on Summer. Looks like the floodgates are opening for quality Bluray films. Once studios see there are demand for their movies on HiDef, hopefully they will be releasing more.

http://www.highdefdigest.com/news/show/Pix...u-ray_Dates/448QUOTE Disney Sets 'Pirates,' 'Cars' Blu-ray Dates Wed Jan 24, 2007 at 04:16 PM ET Tags: Disc Announcements, Disney, Pixar (all tags) In what are sure to be three of the biggest-selling next-gen titles yet, Disney has set Spring street dates for the Blu-ray releases of the blockbuster 'Pirates of the Caribbean' films, and Pixar's first high-def title, 'Cars.'
Just in time for the theatrical release of the third 'Pirates' epic, Disney has set a May 22 voyage for 'Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl' and 'Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest.' These guaranteed huge sellers will be followed on June 5 by 'Cars,' the Pixar hit and current favorite for this year's Best Animated Film Oscar.
The dates recently began filtering to online retailer outlets earlier this week, and Disney has trumpeted the news in a full-page ad in the print version of this week's Video Business, the industry trade paper.
Though no official press release has been issued as of yet, word to High-Def Digest from the studio is that full details are on the way soon. So we'll certainly keep you posted on tech specs, bonus features and box art as soon as word arrives on these highly-anticipated releases.
In the meantime, we've updated the listings for all three titles to our complete Blu-ray Release Schedule.
We also set up dedicated threads for these latest Disney titles in our new Forums area -- click the following links to discuss the 'Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl' Blu-ray release, the 'Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest' Blu-ray release and the 'Cars' Blu-ray release.
The tide is gonna turn into a tsunami come this May! HD-DVD better have something up their collective sleeves. This post has been edited by stringfellow: Jan 25 2007, 01:06 PM
