min $450 for bray player, and yes, awful lack of options... even sony's
own vegas can't 'author' bray. i'm more inclined to wait and see who
wins out (that is, if nothing else crops up in the meantime to make them
both obsolete before they've even hit the market proper). at the moment,
based mainly on paper, i much prefer the hd dvd options...
