And us from AVS are well acquainted with the fanboism of blu-ray.com
too! <G>
But it is a good place to get good info about which BD player to buy,
although it is a bit confusing for most. There are so many different
configurations with BD that it is difficult to get it all at any price
in one machine.
But blu-ray.com has good info for those that have decided BD is the one
to get. It is NOT at all good for those that are looking to decide
which is better. I'm not real sure that any site is very good at that
these days.
Personally I would have bought the $99 HDDVD player. At about the cost
of a good evening out on the town for two, you get an excellent player.
And then buy whichever BD player blows your skirt up. That way you're
covered while all the battles are being fought by us peons on behalf of
the big greedy corporations... :-)
