How would they feel then to have the tables reversed on them?

The problem with TL51 is that the DVD Forum must write new specs for it, including higher bandwith. Otherwise, the BD encode, should it be ported from the HD-DVD version, will be reduced in quality due to the bandwith constraints of HD-DVD.
