Oh, I wholeheartedly agree. I was originally going to be format-
neutral, buying into both while I waited to see which format won out...
however, with the HD-DVD exclusives I'd want being so few, it doesn't
make financial sense for me to buy both players or LG's combo at this
point in time.

I'm doing the same thing-- investing in BluRay simply because it's
providing a better overall package. In a year, I'll revisit that
decision and see if there's a compelling reason to buy a second player
for a second HD format.

Just because I'm buying into BRD doesn't make our resident BluRayPimp
correct. His logic is terrible and he's been wrong about almost every
"fact" he's presented to promote BRD. He isn't the first troll in a.v.d
to do his own argument more harm than good.

BTW- if you're looking to get into BRD, the Samsung BDP-1200 looks
pretty slick.
