    "&quot;Maintained by minor tech legend Jim Taylor, it's not your typical FAQ. Outside of \<i\>The Starr Report\<\/i\>, it just might be the most thorough document known to man--though hardly as prurient.&quot;\<br\>-- Michael Yessis, \<a href=\"http://www.eonline.com/Features/Features/Dvd/sites.html\"\>E! Online<\/a\>",
    "&quot;This is the biggest, meanest, DVD FAQ out there (and probably as 'official' as it gets); over 200k, this one will fill your mind with more DVD information than you'll probably want. Read it at your own peril.&quot;\<br\>-- \<a href=\"http://www.inmatrix.com/links.html\"\>DVD Infomatrix\<\/a\>",
    "&quot;Just wanted to say that your FAQ page is extraordinary - - this morning is the first time I visited it.  From there I found more information - on your page as well as links - than I know what to do with.  Thank you for the time and energy you have put into it, and continue to put into it.  A major resource for me.&quot;",
    "&quot;Thanks so much for the brilliant and extremely thorough DVD FAQ site. I've learned more than I knew existed, and I've only read through part 1 so far.&quot;",
    "&quot;THANK YOU because you are an angel sent from heaven to give the rest of the world the incredible encyclopedia of knowledge that is the DVD FAQ which you post and update. I have read and referred to that thing so many times, I can't tell you how invaluable it's been. Thank you thank you thank you.&quot;",
    "&quot;I wanted to say 'thanks' for maintaining your DVD FAQ. It's probably the greatest compilation of DVD info in existence.&quot;\<br\>-- Ray McCalla, \<a href=\"http://www.dvdepot.net\"\>DVDepot\</a\>",
    "&quot;I needed to know what kind of DVD player I should buy and I came across your FAQ and found it to be exactly what I needed. I wanted to thank you for providing it! I think you've made an excellent contribution to society! If we all put in as much as you have, then we'd have a better world by far.&quot;",
    "&quot;It took me all afternoon to read, but in my opinion, the information density rating is in the top 1% of all web material.&quot;",
    "&quot;I want to thank you profusely for writing and maintaining the DVD FAQ. It helped me solve a key question involving which format (NTSC, PAL, or both) to choose when mastering a project I'm working on for worldwide DVD distribution. It's a great FAQ. I've written several FAQs myself, including one the same length of the DVD FAQ, but yours is a work of perfection.&quot;\<br\>-- \<a href=\"http://www.oldskool.org\"\>Jim Leonard\</a\>",
    "&quot;I have spend many nights learning about the DVD authoring process. I just wanted to thank you for putting your FAQ out there. Every bit of information that I came across so far was summarized on these few pages. Nice work.&quot",
    "&quot;Thanks for maintaining one of the best faq's I've ever seen. I have referred to it numerous times and am astonished at its breadth and overall professionalism.&quot;",
    "&quot;A very big thank you for compiling and maintaining the DVD FAQ. At JVC over here in the UK, it is the first place we look for answers to all those little questions that we can't answer.&quot;",
	"&quot;I was just surfing the net, fantasizing about my one day home theater to-be, and came across your DVD FAQ site.  I just wanted to drop this note to you to let you know that this list is the most impressive FAQ site that I've ever come across, regardless of topic. I've not seen anything as complete as this anywhere, and couldn't resist acknowledging a job well done.&quot;",
	"&quot;Having created video and now dvd material for quite a while I still have your site bookmarked. I return to it frequently to learn new information as technology changes and to reinforce information I already know. I appreciate having a veritable encyclopedia of dvd knowledge and links all in one place.&quot;",
	"&quot;Congratulations on your DVD FAQ site &#8211; you have answered all my questions.&quot;",
	"&quot;My computer just doesn't have enough mem. to copy and paste, this document, but I find it Extreemely thorough!&quot;",
	"&quot;If anyone could say there is a &quot;guru&quot; of DVD technology, than I guess Jim Taylor would be the person most people would point to. This site answers practically every question you could think of about DVD.&quot;\<br\>-- \<a href=\"http://www.gocyberlink.com\"\>CyberLink\</a\>",
	"&quot;...one of the most detailed sources of information about DVD technology that we have ever seen. This is a must read for the techno junkie as well as the technically curious.&quot;\<br\>-- \<a href=\"http://www.dvdbeast.com\"\>DVDBeast\</a\>",
