Hi Geena, good to see you again. This newsgroup has definately seen
better days. Most of the intelligent regulars are gone, as are the
more prolific trolls. a.v.dvd is now mostly a colleciton of "How do I
copy this" and "I think Netflix is throttling" posts. I hate to say it,
but the only decent discussion anymore focuses on the HD format war-- and
even that discussion is loaded with people spouting baseless opinions.
Eh well. I agree with you on one thing, this group was never just about
discussion... there was always mud to be slung somewhere.
