Essentially, children like Assbiotek (or however it's spelled) and Blig seem
to be under the
mistaken impression that anyone, other than those who wish to spend large
chunks of money
on the current Hollyweird "entertainment", would actually care whether it is
on Blu-ray or
HD-DVD. Or more likely, how they would ingratiate themselves before their
master Sony.
Myself, DVD is fine for the shows that I watch (and for the record, the last
somewhat interesting
thing I bought from the Hollyweird types is Good Night and Good Luck). And
unlike AS and Blig,
I need not have large company heads validate my purchases, nor the flattery
of my peers for the
games I play or the shows I watch. Perhaps when they attain adulthood, they
will appreciate
the freedom of choice.
