Something had to be done! Missinformation continue to spread!

I'm sure that all else being equal (equal masters, bit rates, codecs) an HD DVD image and a Blu-ray image would be the same (after all it would be the same data),...

I absolutely agree, unofrtunately, there is hardly any 'science' over on 'that' forum.

As I replied to hmurchison in another thread, if HD DVD's 36 mbs rate turns out to indeed be enough to be visually transparent for HD video images, then concerning video quality, one format is interchangeable with the other, and BD just gives you less disc changes.

I highly doubt that 36Mps is enough for transparency. I'm not even so sure the higher BD bitrate is enough for transparency.

There was a time when audiophile turntable companies were against digital sound and there were audiophiles that took every opportunity to try to sway people to reject CDs, but this is getting ridiculous.

A time? Apparently you haven't been to any audiophile forums lately.
