It seems to me that a lot of people are so distrustful of the consumer
electronics companies - and so confused as to what is considered the best
option - they are just sitting on their cash

Anyone salivating at the prospect of hi-def disks? I remember the early days
of DVD and there was a frisson of excitement. As it stands now hi-def has a
whiff of quadraphonics.

IMO, this new format war just stinks of marketing people hyping and whipping
things up now in order to sell as many Blu-Ray or HD-DVD players now and at
least recoup some of the R&D costs from the early adopters before a unified
format and Tescos start flogging them for �29.99
