So sell it all off and quit whining. I am keeping my PS3 and all the software. I have had no problems since going Blu.

My PS3 is the best piece of electronic equipment I have ever purchased (and I have spent alot in the past) and movies that look and sound so awesome that I doubt I will ever have to repurchase them again. Well, never say never.

I love Blu-ray disc.

I guess it's the frustrations of the format war. I bought the PS3 mainly for the ease of firmware upgrades. I'm not a gamer at all.

I remember my first DVD player wouldn't play any movies that had more than 24 chapters on the disc. It didn't takelong before I couldn't watch the newer releases. I was a little upset at the time having paid more than $600 for it, but now I have a better understanding of what it means to be an early adopter. You need to really research what you are getting before you buy. I would tell you to hang in there, I don't think it will be much longer, and 2 or 3 years from now the war will be a distant memory.

I know that I strongly believe BD, I have days where I'm in doubt ever a week or 2 have passed where I am in doubt, but I've always felt safe to post about my doubts this is a support forum for BD, and tearing down some one for having doubts is hardly supporting the format.

the question I pose to those attack the OP is how would you like it if you were having doubts and all you got were messages saying "fine switch." or "go neutral see if we care." let's start giving the benefit of the doubt here.
