Pirates of the Caribbean trilogy on Blu-ray September 16th {Engadget HD}
Jul 1st 2008 10:30AM $83??...this is why I'm not in any hurry to buy Blu-ray movies just yet, I'll just stick to renting from netflix. It's like Blu-ray movies all have an idiot or dork tax associated with them, and I'm not in any hurry to pay it.
Cox unloads 10 new HD options in Santa Barbara, CA {Engadget HD}
Jun 29th 2008 10:54AM Nah, I already have all of them, with the exception of the MTV set of channels, and I need my brain cells so I'm not to worried about not having those channels. I will say bring me FOX FX and comedy central, what am I talking about bring them all in HD!! I too have just over 35+ HD channels, but that doesn't feel like much since I hardly ever watch SD anymore(my eye's hurt from watching it).

Kaleidescape claims new 1080p upscaling DVD players "rival Blu-ray" {Engadget HD}
Jun 18th 2008 10:29AM I have to admit the current state of DVD's are really good, surprisingly enough, but you simply can't just unleash what's not there to begin with IMO. Just how stupid do you have to be to buy one of these players anyways?
Rock Band dusted with Pixies 'Doolittle' album DLC [update 2] {Xbox 360 Fanboy}
Jun 13th 2008 2:37PM Why didn't they include where is my mind? Or why don't they get a top ten list for all bands on RB and start there?
Half of government-issued digital TV coupons have expired before use {Engadget HD}
Jun 13th 2008 12:25PM Why even put an exportation date when it's only feb of next year when we have the deadline? It's pretty sad that the government has this innate ability to fuck up everything that they touch, even a simple coupon..
GameFly's Austin center 'officially' open, servicing seven states {Joystiq}
Jun 11th 2008 10:06AM This is a good thing IMO and has kept me from canceling my service. I was getting tired of waiting for over a week for a game, now it's much faster and plus I get a game shipped and to my house in 2 days!! Good job gamefly keep it up!
New Blu-ray research says more of the same {Engadget HD}
Jun 4th 2008 10:29AM Well said.. I completely agree with you. Sadly that is what was great about HD-DVD in that every player from the oldest to the newest could all use the same features.
Does anyone know if sony has some sort of clause in the BDA that restricts 2.0 player from being released until they allow it? Give me a 2.0 player for $149 and I'll be happy.
New Blu-ray research says more of the same {Engadget HD}
Jun 4th 2008 8:28AM I love HD in any flavor and I'd like to think that price will help drive sales. I do HD consulting as my second job, and it always surprises me how many people just don't care about HD disks; mostly because they don't "see" the difference( which is mind blowing to me). Secondly, it's the price they don't see the value in buying a movie for $10-15 more than a decent DVD of the same movie.
Sure "WE" understand the difference he, but joe 6-pack doesn't and with DVD players under $50 upscaling or not they don't care to spend 7x that, and especially with gas being as high as it is, I don't see the growth from joe 6-pack becoming reality until we have cheaper disks and much cheaper players IMO.
CNET's HDTV picture settings database takes the edge off calibration {Engadget HD}
Jun 3rd 2008 9:04AM My question has always been, why don't they calibrate HDTV's from the start? Most people that I have run across have simply no idea that they need to do anything at all, let alone plug in HD cables!
