HD-DVD PG response to today

[mrroy]

I didn't see this posted yet so here goes:

"Update, 4 PM PT: The HD DVD Promotional Group responded with a statement that's strikingly similar to the one issued earlier in the day: "We have long held the belief that HD DVD is the best format for consumers based on quality and value, and with more than 1 million HD DVD players on the market, it's unfortunate to see Netflix make the decision to only stock Blu-ray titles going forward. While the Best Buy announcement says they will recommend Blu-ray, at least they will continue to carry HD DVD and offer consumers a choice at retail."

It takes talent to be able to walk up to the podium and give a speech without falling over after getting kicked in the balls twice, I'll them that.

at least? who writes this crap.

[Cozz]

It almost sounds like the vice president wrote it.

There should be a sequel to that Hitler video with the recent updates. Even though I've been an HD supporter, that video is hilarious!

[Hobbes]

Well, what else can they say? It's a tough break and hard to recover from.

Clearly, low level PR and marketting teams.

HR recruiters will be getting many calls from people tomorrow preparing their resumes.

Really....as an HD supporter, this is crap. lol, at least pretend..."at least" ha!

[pbroy]

worst PR Group EVER!!!

Reminds me of the kid that keeps getting picked on at school.. Everyone is constantly teasing him and beating him up, because he's so dorky and he needs to know.....


...the kid then grows up to be Bill Gates... THE END
