"We can't compete on picture and sound, so let's look at something else.

Interactivity, blah blah blah.

Hey, have you heard about our bare bones downloads?"

theknub · 07-17-2007, 08:46 PM

we should start our own fud.

hd-dvd players have ethernet ports so that microsoft can see what people are watching, bookmarking, internet visits and scoring on games just like big brother. the BDA is anti spying so they didn't make it a mandatory feature.

man, i can spin it just like a dj. a-man got nothing on me

Swanni definitely hit the nail on this one.

We've had interactive TV for years since the days of VHS. It's called a porn movie and your "hot dog"!

M$ has been jerk'n us around with this idea for years and it just aint catching on. Folks just wanna kick back a watch a flick.
