Covered over and over and over again.....

Though I did enjoy this part of it...

It seems that any article related to the High Definition format war will inevitably be picked apart and scrutinized for signs for bias (not without good reason in many cases), so before we go any further, I feel that I should address my own position in all of this. I've been covering both High-Def formats since each debuted, and have been described as biased towards HD DVD by some Blu-ray fans, mostly because I gave favorable ratings to early HD DVD hardware and discs, and negative marks to early Blu-ray equipment and software (apparently, the fact that Blu-ray really did have serious quality issues at its start doesn't matter to some people).

If only it was that simple. He was belittling blu-ray well into this year and overhyping HD DVD. Look at Traffic for a good indication of how crazy he gets to defend HD DVD.

And in that very quote you cited, he takes a shot at Blu-Ray fans! Amazing.
