Is this the end of HD-DVD?

I see hairbrush artifacts.  I see them everywhere.

 

SD, I have trouble hearing dialogue from time to time, so I play with subtitles on when I have the option.  Most of the time 1080 subtitles are freakishly small, even on a 42" screen, I just pegged the global settings at 720 and left it at that.   

 

So I'm not the only one!

I don't know about you, but having to 'squint' while reading subtitles is a pain...

I was trying for instance, to watch some subbed anime on my HDTV (via pc & ps3) and the subtitles on the 19" are a pain to read... + unlike a pc, its harder to pause/rewind. ;) )

Ha ha! I can't believe I missed that connection.

 

Not being a hairbrush user myself, I tended to think of the interlaced video phenomenon more in terms of a comb than a hairbrush, but the idea is quite the same.

Paramount has moved over to Blue Ray now.

Well, with toshiba out of HD-DVD, HD-DVD is dead, and the other studios (even not the main big ones) will be following suit very soon. ;)
