Also, HD-DVD has things that Blu-Ray does not. One was the ability for players to go online, shop, watch previews...
That must be the killer feature! I'm glad my DVD player supported DIVX, because that was revolutionary!

Re: So What?

Umm, DivX support is still handy. It's nice to be able to take a clip that you've downloaded and put it on a DVD and play it without having to convert it. It's nice to use since it does provide better compression and quality (though MPEG-4 ASP isn't as good a quality as MPEG-4 AVC)
»en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DivX

Now that other form of DIVX (Digital Video Express) that Circuit City had where you could rent a DVD for a week or so, and then the DVD wouldn't play anymore until you paid more more. That was a horrible idea that should have died on the drawing board.

I think that was the DIVX he was talking about.

I cheered the day Circuit City announced that DIVX was dead.
