And even more distracting is cable/broadcast hdtv compression artifacts that seem especially prevalent in action movies.

That helps my point, only someone that know what "cable/broadcast hdtv compression artifacts" means really wants or "needs" Blu-ray or HD-DVD. people who have 100" projection screens and 50" Plasma's obviously care about their veiwing to the point where it makes a difference to them. 90% of the population, maybe more, are not like nfotiu.
