4. I have A HDTV, but I still haven't decided on a HD disc format. If I had HD-DVD i'd get Planet Earth immediately.

5. Planet Earth is the TV series of the decade.

I don't think I've ever seen a more compelling program or a better reason to subscribe to HD content.

6. Ordered Planet Earth on HD-DVD last week... should have it later this week. I agree that it is a phenomenally good show, no matter your stance on the environment. It's just plain BEAUTIFUL.

7. I'm just glad my order on 2/5 will finally be filled & shipped.

8. What the hell is Digital Video Essentials

9. If they put the Aliens quadrology on HD-DVD screw the add-on, I would go as far as buying the standalone player. The Matrix Trilogy however is enough for me to buy the add-on sometime soon.

11. I will be picking up Planet Earth sometime this week for HD DvD. Not to thrilled about my other choices.

For me specifically I reserve my HD DvD money for high impact action titles where the HD can truely be realized. When is the Bourne Identity supposed to come out?

12. WalMart is getting in on the HD fun:

13. @8: DVE is a very handy disc for calibrating (or 'tweaking') your A/V setup. I have the DVD version and it comes in very handy for correctly setting brightness, contrast, colour levels, sound levels/speaker placement etc.

Has reference pages for tweaking and also gives some good information on how everything works together and which connections are best etc.
