Couldn't agree more... AVS is a good forum generally, but the HD section has turned to fan-boyism endless tit-for-tat. I enjoy the more balanced discussion here.

Although having both formats is satisfying to many who 'over' indulge the sport, I agree with Daniel - if one or the other doesn't establish as the one for the masses by the end of this year, I'll be very concerned for HD disk; It seems the lessons are never learned...

In the meantime - I'm thrilled with the product (from both sides) and hope we can get to an established standard soon...
