Why HD DVD fanboys can't stop talking about Blu-ray - Blu-ray Forum

kaliraver · 09-04-2007, 05:55 PM

To me lately it has really gotten to a point where the HD-DVD fanboys are talking way more about Blu-Ray than HD-DVD. Too me it seems that deep down inside these HD-DVD zealots wished they were Blu-Ray owners. I really feel bad for Amir since he is really a lousy representative for such a huge corp. in M$. He can't stop saying BD or Blu-Ray. With the talk about BD-50 being science fiction I can't stop to think how low can they go. With their crappy Dual format discs that are crappy and even stopping people from buying those discs because people that own HD-DVD have ran into problems with those discs that should have a better quality control check.

Possibly some are "closeted" Blu-ray lovers afraid to come out because of what the other HD-DVD folks would say.

whippersnapper · 09-04-2007, 06:10 PM

And perhaps Amir has some really huge stock options and/or incentives tied into whether he succeeds in derailing the Blu-ray Express?

His job (at least in it's current assignment) could well be in jeopardy if HDDVD fails. I believe Zune is also under his umbrella, but that isn't turning out too good, either.

Scorxpion · 09-04-2007, 06:29 PM

Because they know sooner or later HD-DVD is a lost format ,shoudnt bought it at first but they are stuck on it and want it to stay forever.

BLU-RAY is killing each HD-DVD following its Rule.............

HD-DVD is DEAD for me.

The red ants and their Tier 0 leaders at AVMS have certainly been working overtime ever since Paramount dropped crumbs for them.

Horhay · 09-04-2007, 06:44 PM

They need to feel confortable in order to come out of the closet! They've seen the Blu light they are just afraid to walk towards it.

TruBlu2 · 09-04-2007, 06:46 PM

They are all future Blu-ray customers. They are just getting a lay of the land.

They feel deep down that BD is the best option in Hi-Def entertainment.

Their sub-conscious is telling them to buy Blu-ray.

Maybe we should somehow help them and bring them to the blu-ray side!

Seriously? I love my iPod. Who else does true lossless?

I bet Amir has a few Blu-ray players at home that he'll never admit to. I almost guarantee you that he owns a PS3.

No chance of that happening. In case anyone is wondering, pulling that damn battery out was a PITA. I had to 'modify' a few of them for a specific use.

EricJ · 09-04-2007, 07:43 PM

Actually, as posted in another thread, think it's because HD became so addicted to Sony-basher complaints about the early '06 proto-models (eg. no dual-layer disks, no upconverting), that they didn't notice the calendar changing, and didn't want to lose their one good act--

At first, they got that rush of confidence, but now, every time they try to resurrect "Uh...'PS3's can't do PnP'?" they've become the Kid Burping At the Table, who just can't get that sweet, sweet attention back anymore, no matter how hard they try.
