#6 - good point. I am an HD content provider with HD cams... the shooting for hdtv, editing and comping is totally different when done right. classic NTSC shooting actually makes very bad HD content. Closeups and lighting must be handled differently, and the age of crappy tv catches up with itself.
AV forun about HD media failure is off base crumudgeon talk. Walk into Magnolia or Tweeter or any high end room and its packed with buyers looking for a 2500$ pricepoint. wide flatscreen. mindlessly buying 1366x768 resolution and saying its HD.
MFG's are pushing so much into the marketspace that by jan 2006 you will get that same tv for 1999.
as far as gamers go... http://cfpprod.com/media/
i just put this video up, its an edit for my pals at CFP but it tells the story. Summer to Christmas 2006 is going to be huge game/HD time and the brick and mortar stores and game makers will rake in massive bucks. Following that the Internet in early 2007 will be hot with buying of media, mail order style. Expectations for the importance of 5.1 will run low as the impressive nature of the image on the screen totally captures the attention of the bucks.
