| Blockbuster goes Blu-ray, HD DVD=beta?, Also, most folks with PS3 dont watch Blu-Ray DVDs; The device itself requires the use of a bluetooth game controller, incompatible with the infrared home theater master controls. You can buy another remote for 25 dollars however.Fundamentally the ... | |
| Blockbuster goes Blu-ray, HD DVD=beta?, Actually Blockbuster will carry HD-DVDs for online rentals. Walmart coming out in December with 199 players for HD-DVD from China and not selling any blu ray devices is the true KO and Blu-Ray will likely be the Beta.Netflix will probably get more... | |

| Pink Floyd's Pulse DVD finally The DVD is a great one, especially if you can listen to the 640 mbps audio option.I'm going to have to recommend the Porcupine Tree DVD " Anything Somewhere" as well as far as recent concert DVD releases that are great, particularly as far as audio. | |
| THE Show 07 Thanks for the links. I'll be at CES for the third year in a row. | |
| HT Receiver or High end integrated for music?? Good responses! My only other comment is that a new solution for Home Theater pre/pro and receivers should include coniseration for HDMI 1.3 connectivity and hi def vid and audio.
