May not be much, but I heard Howard Stern mention on the air today that he has a Blu-Ray player...

Hey that's cool, any celebrities that have it, and can tout it will very likely influence their listeners or fans.

Now it's official,Blu-Ray has won!

I haven't heard the whole show today, but heard Robin talking about HD in the news segment.

Actually, Sony should throw a few blu-ray players Stern's way to give away on the show as they are good on getting the word out on things, and Stern has a dedicated and motivated audience.

JasonR · 01-16-2008, 03:25 AM

The news segment was pretty much it. Howard mentioned how he is one of those people HD doesn't really matter to, but he has a Blu-Ray player. Any mention on air is better than none. And he doesn't have a HD-DVD player...

We need Howard to bash to hd dvd on air and call them fools and losers.

Hoo Hoo...

Howard invented HD.

FWIW... Rush Limbaugh talked about his Blu-ray player about a year or so ago.

I agree, if the BDA gave Howard some players to talk about on the air it would motivate a whole new segment of the population to buy them.

i wouldn't be surprised he own the most expensive blu-ray players out there...these are like pennies to him.

Which is why he probably also has a HD player. If I had that much money I wouldn't care about "sides" because I would buy both formats and every movie that is on them.

johnnymech · 01-16-2008, 01:30 PM

Stern has probably received both Blu-ray and HD players from their makers.

Howard could buy 30,000,000 blu-ray players... LOL

Those type of "mentions" are fantastic news for us. Hopefully he will keep mentioning it!

JasonR · 01-16-2008, 04:06 AM

Even him saying he has Blu is positive press for us.

coolmilo · 01-16-2008, 04:39 AM

I've been waiting for a long time for one of those HS staffers to mention Blu-ray. Howard and Robin always talk about movies; Artie is building a home theater in his new house, and Gary built a home theater in his new house and was featured in a hidef magazine. It’s really good news if Howard spreads the word to his 8.3 million listeners.

I have been waiting for them to bring up hdm for a while as well. It drives me crazy when i hear all of them talking about movies constantly and not metioning blu ray. I know robin has been a movie fanatic for a while and was an early adopter of laser disc back in the late 80's early 90's. Baba boooey has a recurring colum in sound and vision so i assumed he would bring it up at some point, it was disappointing when he listed a 3000 capacity dvd server as his Christmas wish.

I mean it isn't like they are hurting for cash. When i heard Artie talking about building a media room in his new Jersey shore house i was wondering if it would be all set up with hdm.

Too bad Stern's movie, PRIVATE PARTS, is a Paramount movie.

I'm sure there are people that do care, so this is for them. If you don't then don't read the thread.
