lol, just read the talking points. extremely sad how paramount has to be bribed (according to the New York Times article) so that they'll defect to one side and, its only 18 months at best.

Well in my humble OPINION is that this will just prolong the battle with HD-DVD for a few more months; we'll see how it ultimately ends. In the mean time, blu-ray still leads in sale values (I believe its by a 2:1 ratio?)-- I just bought 300 and Casino Royale yesterday, ace quality.

I thought transformers was really great (brought back memories of T2) until the robots started talking, oh yes, and pissing, and I started sobbing..oh Micheal Bay, how could you screw this up. I guess he was targeting the younger denomination. Its great if you're a complete transformers-geek/fan or a kid/teenager, but as a young adult after the first half-hour of the show it didn't really appeal to me.

And rx330, yes I do know HD-DVD has interactive menus.
