u betcha i read the article, and i've read three other news articles about this and have picked up somewhat conflicting things. and i dont really think i put spin on it, if you think so...great...but i dont buy a lot of fanboyism in stuff i post, people have told me that before. i just like to argue facts. the only thing i said was 1) i seriously doubt that this is going to effect firms here in the us (movie firms that is) because i didn't see them buying a lot of hd dvd discs or blu ray discs from the states for that matter. there is a film industry in hong kong which is the hollywood of the eat, i think this is def going to be more geared to that 2) the oen thing i thought this was going to do for hd dvd was in all likeliness speed the development of china mftr'd hd dvd players heading stateside (is that pro blu ray?). i immediately followed that with a "but in the long term run, i can't see a chinese firm not making blu ray players as well. there's money to be made, and china likes their trade surplus w/ many countries." I would say thats just discussing both perspectives/sides of the fence, but...i guess u didn't think so.
