HD-DVD Kicks it up a notch....

Amazon.com: Battlestar Galactica - Season One [HD DVD]: DVD: Edward James Olmos. Nuff said.

















except that for 13 eps it's a pretty steep price, given most HD-DVDs are hovering around $20 on amazon at the moment...

It's not a habit, it's cool, I feel alive...

Ya know I'm sure it's a nice purdy picture and everything but i'm not going to buy season 1 over again just b/c the resolution is higher. FAIL.

The show does really look good in HD though!

I just wish this whole BR vs. HD format war was over already so I can get a player.... doh!

As much as I love BSG, the Heroes HD box set looks more appealing to me Still, no HD player at the moment here, so I will wait until both player and discs are a more reasonable price

Not going HD until industry nimrods finish fighting over HD versus Blu-Ray. Supremely don't give a crap which format wins, but not gonna invest until one does.

Just ordered my new HDTV- and thats as far as I'm going until someone sensible steps in to take charge.

I expect a long wait.
