Why do the last few HD DVD titles have to be ones I actually want?

Why would you exacerbate that pain by further expanding your library with titles for a destined-to-be-obsolete format? Makes no sense to me.

My Toshiba DVD player of the same vintage as your Panasonic is still going strong, also. That's one major reason I felt safe picking up my A1 a year and a half ago.
I will absolutely be buying this HD DVD.
