They're (obviously) on the top of this (still) unfinished (raggity arse) shelve.

Hey, obladioblada!
Me too!
You know, with many of my SD's, the transfers are SO GOOD, I forget I'm not watching HD!
(How do they do that? And why don't they do that more often?)

I don't.
Samsung is putting out a combo player at the end of the year. Warner will start selling discs with Blu-ray on one side and HD DVD on the other.
I'm not going to miss out on a film I want because it's format exclusive. La Haine is HD DVD, Volver is Blu-ray, you expect me to have one and not the other?

I just counted the HD DVDs. i was wrong - I have 50 even.
As far as the war goes. i can wait another year to buy into Blu Ray if I have to. Very liitle has come out on Blu Ray so far that I would buy. Of course if more classic films came out on Blu Ray they would get me a lot faster.

I have 94 total (76 hd and 18 bd) and 20 on pre-order.
Im format neutral, but all things being equal, I go for an hd-dvd release over bluray.
Lossless PCM or combo hd disc can push me over into getting BD instead.

However, I've come to the realization that not only is Life too damn short, and that I have no guarantees I'll even be here tomorrow, if I have to purchase two systems to see the titles I want, so be it.
If one system wins, I'm covered, and if neither does, I'm still covered.
...meaning that, if they both continue to co-habitate the HD market (is what I mean to say), I'm totally ready to rock and or roll! The money is already spent and the bills are paid!
Besides, I don't wanna have to play catch up. Like I sorta said earlier in this post, I may not be here in a week, and I for one don't even wanna THINK about dyin' before I've seen 'Cars' in HD!!!

It's the best of both worlds, and I for one, like it.
