Well, was referring to fans thinking Paramount was "doing a Matrix on
them" if they released the new title in hi-def only and not a standard
set that any fan could buy--
That it had the bad luck to be HD only comes down to the fact that
there's no Blu-Ray/DVD combo yet, and it was the only way Paramount
could be "diplomatic" about it.
Still, when the war dies down around <checks watch> January, we should
hear the Blu-Ray version coming out...Be glad Trek wasn't from Universal.
