Default Favorite HD-DVD talking points

If this should not be here, please feel free to delete it. I thought it would be fun to put your favorite HD-DVD talking points here for discussion. I will start it off with:
Sony is just trying to shove their product down everyone's throat acting like the corporate bully, again.
I think it is funny that this seems to be the HD-DVDers favorite argument. HD-DVD is backed by Microsoft, maybe the biggest bullies in the business today. How you can state Sony is evil when you are in Microsoft's camp just makes me laugh every time.

I know exactly what you mean. That point makes you want do a doubletake.

I think the size another one. On one hand they claim it isn't needed and on the other hand they proclaim their 51GB discs(which are still in the labs). Meanwhile we have a prototype which can do 200GB.

The DTS vs. PCM is another which I won't even get into here.

I wouldn't call 200GB Blu any more "real" than TL-51

The best thing to do when arguing is to hold to what is known to be true and mass manufacturable

Aka BD-50 vs HD-30

Wicky has his combat boots on and is readying for the debate!

The only thing I worry about is the nickname. Can we go with maybe "Tyrone" or "Killer" just for the debate?
"Would you care to respond Tyrone?"
