Do you have some sort of learning disorder or what?

um.... HD is here, and while DVD is continuing to gain ground, so will the HD formats, and eventually there will be a tipping point where either DVD will slow down and one of the competing HD formats will take ground, or a new format that's better than both may show up (especially if the two continue to stay at a no-winner-in-clear-site type of race).

i can't see DVD staying when HDTV is slowly growing as the type of TV to get when an old TV fails. With all the HD consumers are having shoved down their throats (cables offering it and promoting it, HDTV's being the prominent display in any electronics section of any bigbox store, etc etc), they are kind of seeing it as something they are going to have to accept. Especially with cheap HDTV's getting ever-so-cheaper, they are reaching the cost of the higher-end SDTV CRT's. That's a good market point to be in, and that price is going to skyrocket downward, at least analysts predict so.

LG is short for Lucky Goldstar. If you aren't familiar with that name, then you may not realize that "Goldstar" (their old product name) is synonymous with "crap". They shortened their name to "LG" sometime in either the late 90's or early 2000's because everybody got wise to the level of quality to expect from them. Believe me when I say that they still produce nothing but crap.

Do you know how big LG is in Europe and in Asia? Noob. Their quality is a lot better than most companies.

As Dacaio mentioned, you don't know what you are talking about.

LG has a lot of products out there with great reviews.

I have an LG fridge, washer and dryer and have had no problems whatsoever with them.

They could have been bad in the past, but are not that way now.

Do you really think that someone like Honda was always a good car manufacturer?

I don't care how big they are, they still produce crap. The masses buy crap in large quantities because it is cheap - look at your nearest Walmart for proof of this. If I sell eleventy billion units of crap at a penny apiece, that doesn't necessarily mean that my company is producing a good product - it means that I'm selling cheap crap. And I'm no noob - I had the displeasure of selling their crap and dealing with the related headaches for many many years.

I've had 2 LG cell phones over the past 4 years and I have not once had a problem with either. Both are absolutely fantastic. Nice to see dual format players coming out, figured it would only be a matter of time.

Me too, they're the sh!t over in the Middle East. Used to have a crappy GoldStar microwave from when they were still called GoldStar, it sucked. LG, on the other hand, makes the best microwaves you can buy in the Middle East, they won awards for them too. LG isn't as crappy as they used to be, and I do have first hand experiences with their old crappy GoldStar crap.
