My pc’s are good for at least 2 more years before I do a total upgrade. I’m not inclined to spend my money because someone tells me I need this or that. And I’m sure you’d find you’d have a lot more users if the feeds weren’t all HD. Be a little more realistic. Not every one of your potential clients has the latest in pc power. In fact, I would wager that less than 90% of the people you are trying to reach do. If the clientele that you do intend to reach are the 10% with all the higher power pc’s, you are doing yourselves a great disservice. I’ve tried Miro twice in the last four or five months. On two different computers. Both times it’s been deleted. Both play HD-DVD’s just fine. All firmware is updated. All software drivers are updated. But Miro refuses to play nice. So, no more. And I will more than not recommend it to people I know. Just curious, is it the corporate snotty-ness or the geek-snotty-ness that drives the arrogance? Or does reality lie somewhere in-between?
