Default Amazon hawking obsolete TVs at top dollar prices?



Sony 32-inch BRAVIA $399.99 (Deal of the Day for November
7th)

This TV is 16:9 720p (1366 x 768) A typical PC resolution
(WXGA); also used by many HD ready TV displays based on LCD
technology.

Today's TVs are 1080p Full HD resolution 1920 x 1080p This
is standard HDTV resolution, used by Full HD and HD ready
1080p TV displays such as high-end LCD TVs.

Trying to show your blu-ray DVDs on this TV is a waste of
your time. This is not a Deal of the Day (unless you are
Amazon and then it is a very good deal of the day!)

The blu-ray format is a DVD (Digital Video Disc) format no matter what
the Sony hype tries telling the public. So calling it a blu-ray DVD, is
just that, a DVD in blu-ray format. Blu-ray spoken by itself could mean
anything from a blu-ray disc, player, recorder, laser pen, etc.

Please, Alice, what does the Sony hype call it?

What is BD (my guess: Blu-ray Disk)?

Although I myself would desire to buy a 1080p set myself, 720p is also
considered full HD.

With Sony you pay more for the name, also free shipping must be padded into
the price. Interstate shipping of a TV set ain't cheap.

Its also a video compact disc but you didn't call it a BD DVD VCD. Its HD
and by your logic its a DVD so its also a HD DVD.

You lost this argument months ago. Both DVDs and BDs are *optical* discs. So
are compact discs. The fact that a CDV contains digital video doesn't make
it a DVD. The fact that a BD contains digital video doesn't make it a DVD,
either. Give it up, already.

Bad Dog.
Big D*ck. * = i, o, u. Take your pick.

Or a thousand other meanings. If one says blu-ray DVD, I don't think
there can be much doubt what is meant.

You're an idiot, or just too damn stubborn to except the definition of
DVD as defined by all dictionaries of the english language. Come to my
house and ask for a BD and see what you get.:-)
