I'm enjoying the lying, false responses more.

Like "Brian", who claims there have not been any Blu movies released on 50GB discs yet.

"Hi... I'm the store clerk that gave the interview. I actually gave a list to the reporter listing the production companies that put out movies in either blu-ray, hd dvd, or both. I swear I listed 20th Century Fox at the top of the Blu-Ray list, and also suggested that she have the list (along with another outline I drew up for her) available on the web-site. There was a lot more to the interview, but I guess it was edited for convenience. Also, the discs are not the same size originally. The Blu-Ray is thinner, as in depth, but is made thicker by a special coating - which I mentioned in the interview. "

That is funny! However, he actually, posted a comment in their feedback section and states he listed fox as a blu only company. While some of what he said is inaccurate, I blame the reporter for not doing something known as investigative journalism and fact checking, AKA: her job.

To date, no Blu-ray disc has used 50gb...

Except... 80% of them.

Cyorg · 12-11-2007, 02:20 AM

Did they just say that Fox is exclusive HD DVD?

hardcore_canadian · 12-11-2007, 02:22 AM

Wow, i hate the internet these days. People can post lies and the average idiot can't tell it's not True...on the other hand you can post lies and the average idiot can't tell it's not a lie.

Not saying this reporter was out right lying, just not fact checking, which is the first thing i was taught when i started my journalism program.

chuck440 · 12-11-2007, 02:22 AM

Joon · 12-11-2007, 02:24 AM

Your HD-DUD under-cover lol ...JUST JOKING.
I thought you did a far job.Why in the heck were you pushing upconvert player?

hardcore_canadian · 12-11-2007, 02:29 AM

I do like how the interview editing cut him off part way through his sentences. That's basically saying the reporter isn't important enough to get enough airtime for a proper interview

turboedguy · 12-11-2007, 02:31 AM

Wow there was som guy "Brian" posted major FUD in his comment!

He states no 50gb Blu-ray has ever been sold!

Jack@ss!
