    E-books and other marketing e-mail unsubscribe?

    So, how do I unsubscribe from marketing e-mail like the Audioholics E-Book Membership Program e-mail that I received yesterday evening? Some might not want to hear this, but without an unsubscribe link in the e-mail, such mailings could be considered in violation of the CAN-SPAM act, and...

    Hauppauge vs HD HomeRun - which has the best ATSC tuner?

    I am building a HTPC Win 8.1 x64, and want to add an OTA tuner to the mix.

I am leaning towards the...

    OTA Signal guide?

    Sometime last year, I found a web site that had a comprehensive listing of over-the-air television signals for my area. I have tried to find that site again, but I am not having any luck.

    Receiver upgrade HD / non-hd audio formats is it worth it?

    I have an older Yamaha RX-V2500. It does not have HDMI at all, so therefore, I am unable to decode formats like DTS HD Master Audio. Right now, my BR player is able to re-encode the BR HD audio formats to DTS, and I am using this. I cannot say that I know what the HD audio formats sound like...

    Expensive vs inexpensive blu-ray players article?

    I thought that I saw an article on Audioholics that compared the sound and audio quality of expensive vs inexpensive players. Was I imagining this? If not, anyone have a link to that article? Thanks.

    DTS HD Master Audio / Dolby TrueHD with 5.1 speaker setup and speaker placement?

    I am not sure where to post this, so I am posting it here. Will I be able to use the DTS HD Master Audio or Dolby TrueHD tracks on Blu-ray discs with a 5.1 speaker setup? My wife won't let me put in 4 rear speakers in my new setup, mainly because our room size is limited and she does not...

    Pre-pros / receivers with 2 hdmi outputs?

    In hopes of a future release of a blu-ray recorder or other digital recorder with an HDMI input, I am looking for pre-pro / receiver recommendations that have 2 hdmi outputs. Even better would be that if each output were independently assignable to a source so I could watch one source while...
