"sounds like a *riced out* addition to DVD, like a Ferrari F40 wanna-be spoiler affixed to a 10 year old Honda Civic."
Haha, How did you know what I drive?
All I'm trying to say is that HD-DVD sounds like the natural successor to DVD. Blu-Ray sounds like Blutooth, which will just blow some tech deficient people's minds. (So I can watch movies on my phone now?) I like my commonly used electronics names to be short, VHS, DVD, VCR, TV, CD, DVR, Blu-Ray??? Which one of these things is not like the other...
I do think [*Riced Out* Disc] could be a good name. ROD for short.
The only reason HD-DVD is a competitive is because it's got the better name. Sure it'll cost lest to manufacture and be...*cough*... more compatable, Blue-Ray offers so much more, it only has a crappy name. Maybe this group can think of a better name. Any ideas? HDVD? DVD-Ultra? Super-DVD?

"Do you want me to get naked and start the revolution?" I was really looking forward to saying that.
