It looks like discussion of the "bitstream bomb" has been picking up at AVS lately. One more thing for Outlaw to worry about as they develop their own HDMI v1.3 products...

Some of Denon's chosen price points lately have struck me as a bit odd. There's the $7,000 surround processor, the $2,000 Blu-ray player that lacks DVD-A/SACD support, the $1,000 Blu-ray transport that lacks DVD-A/SACD support and any outputs except HDMI - and neither BD player is profile 2.0. I hope those prices are helping finance some good R&D for less expensive products.
