Warner Going Blu-ray Exclusive (Rumor) - Page 70 - Blu-ray Forum

micks_address · 09-27-2007, 02:54 PM

almost 4pm in dublin.. heading home.. that takes about 1 hour.. so will only have 1 hour to wait to see if there's any truth to it

what makes me wonders is

1) The OP has admitted he posts under another name and has opened up a new account to post this - the mods surely know this and you'd think would not allow it without very good reason

everything else is hearsay.. you can look at dates etc and talk of deals and point to things like warner being @ the bda conference at the IFA etc but its easy to start adding 2 + 2 and get 5 when its the answer you want..

Here's hoping to there being something to it. I was really angry when Paramount went HD DVD exclusive, this would certainly go a long way towards ensuring Blue Ray surviving as a HD format if its true.

pman would say that if he knew an announcement or not. it could be worded funny due to where he is at in the world or blu-ray.com time. he flashed smilies, it appeared like he was talking in code like he always does, he latter denied it, but what can you expect his job is on the line. he did not tell ppl to settle down, he has been telling us for a long time that big things have been going on and that he can't talk about them, and he said that the bda has been talking to WB quite a bit, and WB has confirmed this. p-man was not 100% convincing, but he def. made me believe that SA-CD has some cred. even if nothing happens at 10 pst, SA0CD knows something is up with the BDA and WB and P-man did confirm that, just no announcement today.

Seriously.

The credibility of the "source" is highly suspect to begin with.

This thread is as bad or worse than any of the countless HD-DVD zealot "wishing upon a star" circle jerk rumination threads about nothing.

There's no good reason to believe any of this IMO unless someone's got something to show me.

Like I said before, it is entertaining nonetheless.

I honestly think it's almost an all time low for this forum.
