Hi all,

I just visited the site and finds so much crap and bias, for example like reading here LINK: http://www.hddvd.com/go.php/now-list...-case/#more-50

I find it odd that they don't have Forums there as well. Well maybe it's better that way..

Anyone here ever had a look at http://www.hddvd.com ?

Yep, I go there to check out specs and to see if new hardware is coming out and maybe a new HD-DVD player manufacturer. I don't see much reason to read their forums because I'm capable of understanding published technical information and to research on new technologies and don't need to read slant and hype.

As I understand it the difference in disc capacity between HD and Blue Ray is acutally not significant because Blue Ray is still using MPEG 2 compression while HD uses a newer and more powerful compression software VC1.



as I am not a Audio whiz just a mere blu-ray supporter because of the inevitable end with blu-ray on top, is this true or is this guy just another HD-DVD allstar.

BD can use VC-1, AVC which is mpeg-4, and mpeg-2. EVERY 1.0 profile player does this. My understanding from videophiles is that mpeg-4 returns a better picture.

It's useless arguing with those people because they print what they hear and not what they research themselves. Go sample specs recent releases on both formats. You'll see a lot of AVC, PCM uncomressed 6 channel audio, and Dolby TrueHD audio for blu-ray. Only VC-1 and a lot of older DTS and Dolby for audio on HD-DVD.
