"Would these be 1080i streaming players?"

They are 1080p too, ignorant fanboy.

I own a HD DVD and A Blu-ray player...

HD-A35 and A Pannasonic BD30K (Which thanks to it having DTS MASTER, its the best blu-ray player and I got it cheaper then what you pay for a ps3, $314)

I'm perfectly happy with both. HD > SD

I don't care what format it is, and Personally, I see no difference between them. Fox and Lionsgate is the only one make TRUE Blu-ray movies. (13% of Blu-ray movies are DTS Master) WTF is with the 5.1 Unconpressed from Sony and Disney movies? Talk about cheap... Oh then you have the perfect 1/8 of the movies that DVD has. Why is there so little of movies to choose from both sides? It's Pathetic!

Ps. RE:E did suck, its a video game movie adaption...enough said. It's like DOOM. The only one that actually worked was Hitman.]]>Jan 11th 2008 5:34PMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2008/01/11/nielsen-videoscan-high-def-market-share-for-week-ending-january/http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/01/11/nielsen-videoscan-high-def-market-share-for-week-ending-january/
You're so stupid you can't even reply to the proper thread, you idiot. I didn't think it took that much intellect to click the proper Reply link - apparently it does. BTW, did the 1080i comment really hurt you, you little HD DUD fanboy.

As for not being able to see the difference, well, that's what happens when you develop for the lowest common denominator - HD DVD.

You can really tell a HD DUD fanboy when he starts complaining about uncompressed sound. You see, HD DUD fanboys like their sound compressed as much as possible. When you have difficultly hearing (and seeing), I guess sound isn't to big of a deal. It's really too bad we don't see more LPCM sound on HD DUD movies - oh wait, we can't because they have storage limitations.

Hopefully, the demise of HD DUD will allow content producers to truly fill up that BD disc with worthy HD content instead of having to drop down to SD extras because they just couldn't fit it on the HD DUD disc.]]>Jan 11th 2008 7:23PMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2008/01/11/nielsen-videoscan-high-def-market-share-for-week-ending-january/http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/01/11/nielsen-videoscan-high-def-market-share-for-week-ending-january/Jan 11th 2008 4:13PMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2008/01/11/nielsen-videoscan-high-def-market-share-for-week-ending-january/http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/01/11/nielsen-videoscan-high-def-market-share-for-week-ending-january/Jan 11th 2008 4:16PMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2008/01/11/nielsen-videoscan-high-def-market-share-for-week-ending-january/http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/01/11/nielsen-videoscan-high-def-market-share-for-week-ending-january/Jan 11th 2008 4:37PMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2008/01/11/nielsen-videoscan-high-def-market-share-for-week-ending-january/http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/01/11/nielsen-videoscan-high-def-market-share-for-week-ending-january/Jan 11th 2008 4:56PMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2008/01/11/nielsen-videoscan-high-def-market-share-for-week-ending-january/http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/01/11/nielsen-videoscan-high-def-market-share-for-week-ending-january/

A Blu-ray machine might be able to play HD-DVDs at some point, but not vice versa.

The blu-ray hardware spec has a maximum audio+video system bandwidth of 48mbps versus a paltry 30mbps for HD-DVD. So the DSPs and other components probably couldn't handle that bitrate. Also, though they use the same laser, the optics and chassis have to be more precise for Bluray due to the higher bit density on the disc.]]>Jan 13th 2008 5:35AM
