Yes you did - even though you don't believe that cost will be the issue
that makes HD-dvd "stillborn". Isn't this what you wrote earlier:?
"Haven't you read Samsung's latest press release? They intend to become

I see Hollywood overcontrol (read digital-rights-management
/anti-piracy) as the poison that might kill hi_def DVD.
