Is there a point?

[Paul McNeil]

Thanks, 'Isolar', I think my point is a good one: why invest in the gear if the data falls short. Is there some other way I can put this question more directly?

I see your point...
I get a good laugh over on AVS when users sweat bullets over buying a television with the best possible specs, only to watch nothing but garbage quality streaming on it.
Makes zero sense to me.
So no, there is no point. (in that case at least)

Heh, while I mostly watch streaming content I like the wide viewing angle of my LG OLED. That was a major reason as to why I held on to my old plasma for so long and not buying LCD.

You don't have to steam...I don't, and never will.
I knew even back in the 70's that no system was any better than its source material.

If you can afford the gear, you usually can afford the better sources.

The gear is not an investment but consumption.

We're all equal.

Haha, yeah (see my gear), if I watch only BluRay discs. But's that not what you or I do, I'm guessing. Be honest!

Well whatever, did I go for one or the other, but it's both!

May I say, that, in my opinion, this forum is totally worthless. But that is not surprising, so are most of these. Goodbye all.

You really came on here and acted like a prize "twot". Your first post was incomprehensible and looked as if it came from a bot. We have had some bots lately.

We certainly don't tolerate fools gladly here, and I certainly don't. You have put yourself well into that category in the space of an afternoon or less, and rated high up that category to boot.

I really don't think you could contribute anything useful to these forums, so your early exit relieves us from wasting time with you.
