Silly question, what about buying a combo player and getting the high rated HD-DVD films for cheap as one starts a collection?
For what the combo players cost, you wouldn't be saving much, if at all, by grabbing a bunch of HD DVD titles.
The Samsung BD-UP5000 retails for $999, but normally streets for around $799, though Amazon currently has it for $610.57.
So, if you go to grab, say, 20 HD DVD titles at $12.20 (From Deep Discount, no tax, free shipping), you're out $244.
If you buy half that for $122, the what's the point of the combo player for 10 movies? If you paid the normal street price of $799, you've now just spent $200 for a Blu-ray player that plays your 10 HD DVDs.

All I know is that unless you like waiting months to watch Blu-Ray movies you bought, don't buy the Samsung BD-1200.
There have been quite a few movies that have come out (like 3:10 to Yuma and Pirates) that just wouldn't play. They released a firmware update last week that finally allowed 3:10 to play, but I find it irritating that I had to wait over a month to watch it - especially since talking to customer service leaves you with the feeling that they wouldn't ever fix the problem.
Anyways, stay away from the BD-1200, unless you have more patience than me.

It is about ****ing time that my PS3 got "resume play." It pissed me off that my POS HD-DVD add-on had that feature and not my fancy schmancy PS3 did not.
I told you before the holidays Graffeo would be ousted. Zucker is going to have to answer to the stockholders, and the hell if he was going to be the patsy.
All of the murmurs I had been hearing over the last year from my friends at Home Video, I'm surprised Graffeo lasted as long as he did.

There are/were a few HD DVD titles that had this issue. Honestly, with Blu-ray?HD DVD titles, it's an authoring protocol.
