Has Blu-ray already lost? {Engadget HD}
Aug 28th 2007 3:44PM Rob Enderle is a paid hack who has been pushing HD DVD from the very start.
He has also been anti-Apple and Mac for years. He has absolutely no credibility and it is a shame you are giving him a forum at Engadget!!!
This guys is a loser
Sony's BDP-S300 does Blu-ray on the cheap this summer {Engadget HD}
Feb 26th 2007 5:37PM Looks like a very nice model. for the money though i wouldnt mind the PS3. which still compared very favorably against it.
although as a standalone, it looks very nice.

HR20: buggy and unresponsive, but customers seem to love it anyways? {Engadget HD}
Feb 24th 2007 12:14PM This article is self interested for FOX because although Fox doesnt own directv, their company still owns NDS who is responsible for the HR20. so they do directly profit from this device doing well.
Also, Just because some DVR / DBS fanboys are jumping onto the Beta test bandwagon, doesnt mean this HR20 is a good device. It isn't. I have tons of problems and while some aspects of it are an advance. I wish they would bring back Tivo as an alliance for a new HD box.
And yes, Directv is HD lite, they compress it alot, but generally it still looks good. Although some artifacts. I believe this will get better with the new satellite launches soon.

Direct comparsion screenshots of DIRECTV and DISH Network {Engadget HD}
Jul 28th 2006 1:57PM Well, no surprise to me. as a directv subscriber I am aware that they do compress the crap outta it sometimes.
I would really expect they do it on the national HD networks, depending on the baseball/sports tv load and other factors
What i am really concerned to see is the quality of signal off the new satelites with MPEG 4, for national channels.
I am hungry for more national channels and the new HD DVR!!! on Directv
DIRECTV's HD DVR coming out in August? {Engadget HD}
Jul 28th 2006 1:41AM about freaking time!
Now the new DVR won't be worth anything unless they add new national tv channels though.
Third round of Blu-ray titles coming from Lionsgate {Engadget HD}
Jul 25th 2006 1:17PM well, at least lionsgate isnt charging more than $29.99
they have released other titles at higher prices, and i wouldnt buy anything priced higher. ever.
i don't want to support a rational which will have studios return to the pricing of Laserdisc days. ie $35, $40 and up.
