I'm betting that has something to do with a recent announcement by, I think, Warners that would go exclusively with BlueRay as their hi-def format choice. It's pretty much seen as the beginning of the end for Hi-Def in the BlueRay vs. Hi-Def format war.

A friend of mine saw a player at Best Buy that will play either hd or bluray. ($8000.00 or thereabouts.)

Which is surprising because I always assumed HD-DVD would win. I mean, it has HD and DVD right there in the name! NAME RECOGNITION, right?

According to the home theater geeks I know, Blu-Ray is the preferable high definition format. Also, it was first and Blu-Ray vs. Hi-Def is seen as the equivalent of DVD vs. DIVX, with Hi-Def being DIVX (minus the pay-to-play aspect that doomed DIVX from the start).

I won't be around for the watch and post this week. The PC that I use for that is non-functional; I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I'll be able to get it working again by next week. Have fun!

You'll be missed, Morgana.

Which ep are we on this week? Is this Out of Gas? Because I have something else I should do, but if we're on Out of Gas, then I am so there tonight.
