Im sorry for making you spend $165 then :)

Yea, It doesnt include 300 on HDDVD like last week, but its only $165 :P You can also use google checkout and make it $155 with free shipping. Thats a pretty darn good deal

Have you seen movies in HD? I have yet to own a HD movie player, but when I saw Happy Feet in HD, despite hating the movie, I HAD to watch it in all of its high definition glory. I then skipped going out with some friends to watch Persuit of Happiness. I then watched four straight episodes of Entourage. It was the greatest night ever.

Maybe it's because King Kong sucked that you didn't get a good first impression. Not bad bad, but boring as **** for the first 2 hours, decent action, and then more bore fest with beastiality love story for the next 4 hours bad.

The HD DVD drive does 7.1 Dolby Digital. What it doesn't do is any type of lossless audio.

Than MS sure wasted a lot of time with Live and all of the movie downloads. Either that or you're full of it.

sorry but it comes 360 hdmi is 1.2 which means i will not get TrueHD like the ps3 gets due to the 1.3 that ps3 uses.

I don't see how I was doubting myself, but okay.

In fact, I'm not even sure how you could make that assumption. That was a stupid comment, but thanks for clarifying with the picture.

Regular Dolby Digital (not lossy or lossless) and Dolby Digital TrueHD (lossless) are not the same thing.
