Read WSR issue 113 ASAP - Blu-ray Forum

JTK · 09-17-2006, 02:17 PM

page 40, in depth interview with Don Eklund and Chris Walker from the BDA.

WSR didn't lob these guys a bunch of softball questions and basically the interview is about "Why did the BD launch suck, for all intents and purposes? Why did we see these amazing demoes and a final product that feel shockingly short? What are you going to do about it? etc. etc."

This interviews DESTROYS so many of the lies, stupidity, and FUD you see out there, especially on one or two very prominent and notorious forums, that it really had me LOL last night several times. It's that obvious.

I know I'm going to see WSR defamation threads going up from HD-DVD fanboys over this thing. I guarantee it.

Lots of pesky facts that won't be to their liking or advantage.

Now, since I'm a subscriber, I'm allowed to log into WSR's website and download PDF files of pretty much everything.

I have the PDF of this very interview ready to go right now. If you all can't get to this issue, I will happily email it to you. Everyone needs to read it and read it carefully.

Simply PM me your email address and I'll get it off to you straight away.

It's a hot potato.

It is an interesting article but once again they blame Samsung for everything. Those of you that have seen The Fifth Element on BD know that the source material was seriously lacking. There's no way even the Pioneer Elite can polish that turd. It's a shame Sony can't admit their own faults yet are so quick to point out the faults of others. That said I did like hearing that Sony is open to using VC-1 and AVC and that they are firm believers in using lossless codecs on all of their discs.

I don't know. I felt like they were specific enough to not just blame Samsung for everything. The issue about NR came up, Samsung's going to fix it and they were like "Wow, after the fix it all looks about equal across the boards."

I didn't feel like I was seeing a Samsung bash fest by any means.
