It's Vizio vs Panasonic/Sharp
It's Kia Spectra vs Honda Civic/Toyota Corolla
It's Whatever asian vs Dell/HP

Genius! Blu-Ray as a format is not expensive. It just represents a small premium over HD-DVD players with inferior specs. Make that ONE/SINGLE/UNO/SOLO/SOLITARY HD-DVD player.

I included items that were twice the price of each other, which is accurate to the one player, yes.

Whatever floats your boat, if you want your media to be compared to a Corolla instead of a BMW.

Blu-Ray is not a luxury item. Cripes! You could argue the same with the A20, A30, XA2 whatever.

HD media is not a luxury? You're kidding, right? Will I die without it? No. Will a much cheaper SD player suffice? Yes. It must be a luxury item.

Forget about it thrl, anybody who says J6P is more savy than us when it comes to HD media is clearly just trying to argue for the sake of arguing. Blu-Ray and HD-DVD are clearly a luxury at this point in time. First off, you need an HDTV to truly enjoy them, duh! How many people even have on yet? Most of my friends are just starting to get them.
