Denon 5910ci and Sony XA9000ES

I am not going to buy everything new that comes out on HD.
Some titles I will re-purchase. Casablanca is one that I did. Stunning it is.

I own 8 HD DVDs, but I didn't buy any of them. Three were gifts, and the other five were the freebies I got for buying a Toshiba and sending in the form to claim five free HD DVDs within the specified time frame. Casablanca was one of those. When I previewed it to see what it looked like, I had to call my wife into the room. The image quality of Casablanca blew her away.

For the rest of it, I set my Netflix profile to prefer HD DVD when available for a title in the queue.

On Dec. 11, Warner is releasing a 5-title HD DVD set of the Harry Potter movies so far. I smell a Christmas present. :)

Very interesting about the HD DVD. Sounds exciting. I'm still very interested to hear comparisons of the Denon 5910 versus Sony XA9000ES for Redbook Cd playback. I'm assuming both will satisfy for the other formats. I'll still be using my Toshiba HD ready TV with the old progressive scan 3 wire connection component video system for at least a couple of years and the Toshiba SD9200 DVD player seems to look ok for us. Would the new Benchmark DAC 1 from the SD9200 provide sound to equal the 5910 or XA9000Es?
