So can't you just route your audio-out to the receiver directly?

That's the problem with the HD craze these days: look around for reviews and whatnot and you'll find that some titles were just transfered to HD or Blu just for the sake of having them on that format. This reminds me of the time they transfered Macross Plus to dvd but the quality from VHS was debatable if non-existent...

I would guess that the mini-disc signal would be the same quality as RCA, because your receiver doesn't do any surround signal work anyway...

I've got my stuff set up in a similar same way: source audio to receiver with fiber optic and then source video to t.v. with HDMI. What I've never understood about HDMI is the need to carry an audio signal to the t.v., unless the internal speakers on the t.v. are being used in the speaker setup...

Wait, how's this supposed to work? Let's say you've got the PS3 on HDMI, so you run that to the receiver and then run the receiver to the t.v., but...why would you want to carry the audio signal to the t.v. as well (since HDMI carries a/v)? I guess I'm out of it, but I always thought it was source audio to receiver and source video to t.v.

Was it just another one of those, "encode it on HD just for the sake of having it on HD" type of deals, where the quality isn't any better than standard DVD?

That's been known for a long time. The difference between the $100 Monster cable and even the $20 Radio Shack deal is neglible. The fact that Monster cables are still in business attests to the ignorance of the buying public... http://www.audioholics.com/education/cable...ects-and-cables

You gotta' love those 12 year old boys with cute faces:

You know someone told me that boy is royalty-specifically a member of some royal Canadian family or something? So here he is, a prince, with a naked, moaning, grinding Grace park on top of him...Lucky indeed...

I'm ashamed to say it, but "I" don't get the neoprene thing. What was she supposed to do with it? Place it between each other? I thought the same thing she did: placing it on the ground to lie on top of? IDK, lol...

March '08, I believe. And remember this final season is supposed to stretch into '09. Meanwhile, I'm reading Grace Park's '05 Maxim spread and she's talking about how they had to seriously edit her sex scene with Helo because she was moaning too much and totally grinding into Tahmoh (Helo). Hot stuff....

Heh, I was theeeeere man (takes drag from pipe). I remember it like it was yesterday. Well, the stateside version of all of that, anyway...

Wait a minute, the advantage of a Mac 'app like OS-X with the option of running windows as well? Wow. That would seal the deal for me as well, as my only argument against 'Mac mainly consisted of a lack of software availability...

Really? How does that figure?

Hey now, why break with tradition, lol...Just kidding...

Yeah ok, so when is this thing supposed to be out?

The '21 is my favorite sci-fi, anime, fantasy vehicle ever-I remember seeing it for the first time back in '97 and just being blown away by the fighter design. QC issues and miscolored triangles will not keep me from buying this one, I'll make the time to fix it if need be...

Oh my...

Oooooo-K...

I vote to ban Dante...

Lol, ah whatever. I'm still not fond of the idea of spending $25 to $40 for a new HD/BLU release when I could pick it up for $15 on old-tech format anyway. Picking up Die Hard and Spiderman was pain-ful...

Well there are some sites I've checked out that have it as "coming soon," so maybe there's still hope for this although....gosh, this thing would probably be waaaay bigger than the 1/18 Hornet I've still got in the box. About how long would this thing be in 1/18th, Dave?

AAAaaaargh!!!

Wasn't someone working on a 1:18 scale F4, along with a B25? On another note, I just picked up a 1:18 Hellcat-it's a 'beaut!

AAAaaaargh!!!!
