jetpack_monkey: (Willow - Geez)
Don't ask me how, but I accidentally wandered into the Amazon.com forums on Blu-ray and HD-DVD. Man, that shit is hateful. Just a bunch a people with nothing better to do than post smackdown after poorly worded smackdown against the format they like least. They stalk the forums for both formats, too. Every poor newb who wanders into the HD-DVD forum looking for answers is met with "Don't use HD-DVD, it's for lamers." "Don't listen to that Sony shill. HD-DVD will win the format war because Blu-ray has xxxx bad thing that doesn't matter to Joe Consumer. HD-DVD has..." "What kind of idiot are you? Blu-ray has completely unrelated thing that may or may not be true."

What ever happened to having a preference? It's a freakin' movie player, people. It's not a political party. It's not determining the future of your country -- just the future of your living room. Read a fucking book, get some air, get a life. Were I about to buy a player, I think I'd be scared off of HD for a while in both formats with that kind of vitriol flying around.

Geez macreeze. Perspective!
